Examples

The following example assigns the same ContextMenu to two buttons and sets the HasDropShadow, Placement, PlacementRectangle, HorizontalOffset, and VerticalOffset properties to set the ContextMenu to different positions for each button.

<StackPanel>
  <StackPanel.Resources>
    <ContextMenu x:Key="myContextMenu">
      <MenuItem Header="Item"/>
    </ContextMenu>
  </StackPanel.Resources>

  <!--Both buttons use the same ContextMenu but use the
    properties on ContextMenuService to position them
    differently.-->
  <Button ContextMenu="{StaticResource myContextMenu}" 
          ContextMenuService.HasDropShadow="False" 
          ContextMenuService.Placement="Relative"
          ContextMenuService.HorizontalOffset="50"
          ContextMenuService.VerticalOffset="-10">
    button 1
  </Button>

  <Button ContextMenu="{StaticResource myContextMenu}" 
          ContextMenuService.HasDropShadow="True"
          ContextMenuService.Placement="Right"
          ContextMenuService.PlacementRectangle="0,0,30,30">
    button 2
  </Button>
</StackPanel>

Remarks

When the ContextMenu opens, the value is set to the value of SystemParameters.DropShadow. Setting this property to true has no effect if the SystemParameters.DropShadow property is false.
