Display context menu

Description

This sample shows how to display a context menu when a user right-clicks the map or a graphic. Menu's are created using Dojo'sdijit/Menu. This code snippet shows how to create a new menu and calculates the location on the map where the user right-clicked.

ctxMenuForMap = new Menu({
  onOpen: function(box) {
    currentLocation = getMapPointFromMenuPosition(box);
    editToolbar.deactivate();
  }
});

The right-click location is used to create a new graphic and add it to the map.

ctxMenuForMap.addChild(new MenuItem({
  label: "Add Point",
  onClick: function(evt) {
    var graphic = new Graphic(geometryJsonUtils.fromJson(currentLocation.toJson()), symbol);
    map.graphics.add(graphic);
  }
}));
