I have a RichTextBox on my usercontrol

In the Designer if I right click the RichTextBox the context menu includes
the item "Edit Text Lines"

I'd love for myuser control to have that feature.

Any idea how to add an item to the context menu?

Thanks in advance for any help

Hello,

Have a look at this article:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/03/12/CuttingEdge/

It explains the basics of extending the Visual Studio designer, and adding
entries to context menus ("verbs") is one of the possibilities. There's a
lot of other content on MSDN, if you want to find more information.
