Context menu

A menu that appears at the pointer on right click or long press

import { ContextMenu } from "@nyte-ai/ui/context-menu";

A menu that opens where the user right clicks or long presses. No Nyte styling on this one, you own the visual layer.

Usage

  • Treat a context menu as an enhancement. Users may not discover it, especially on touch devices or with assistive technology, so expose the same actions from a visible control such as a Menu button.
  • ContextMenu.Trigger renders a <div>. It defines the area that responds to right click and long press.
  • The root popup is positioned at the pointer. Submenus are positioned against their trigger, and default to side="inline-end".
  • closeOnClick controls whether clicking an item closes the menu. It defaults to true on ContextMenu.Item and false on ContextMenu.CheckboxItem.
  • ContextMenu.LinkItem renders an <a>, so pass href instead of onClick.

PropTypeDefaultDescription
disableAnchorTrackingbooleanfalseWhether to disable the popup from tracking any layout shift of its positioning anchor.
alignAlign'start'How to align the popup relative to the specified side.
alignOffsetnumber | OffsetFunction-Additional offset along the alignment axis in pixels. Also accepts a function that returns the offset to read the dimensions of the anchor and positioner elements, along with its side and alignment. The function takes a data object parameter with the following properties: data.anchor: the dimensions of the anchor element with properties width and height.data.positioner: the dimensions of the positioner element with properties width and height.data.side: which side of the anchor element the positioner is aligned against.data.align: how the positioner is aligned relative to the specified side.
