The key to this is using the Popup Panel. The Popup Panel can respond to hover, click and right-click events on any control. You can then place whatever links, text, etc… into that Panel (like any other panel).

The other item, is that i had to manually change the position property on the Popup Panel to ‘mouse’ so that the panel appears precisely where i click.

Please see the attached 8.x project for an example.

PS: If you don’t have 8.x, you can just open up the .view file and copy and paste into a temporary 7.x project.

I’m not sure how to do that. I imagine you’ll have to attach a javascript listener to the outer html of your portlet, but i’m not sure if all right click mouse events will bubble up to your event handler or not.

Just wrap your entire portlet with a Block Panel control and then add a ‘Popup Panel’ control that listens for right-click on the wrapper Block Panel.

I’ve attached a sample project that demonstrates this.

NOTE: there is an open defect in Designer for the ‘Popup Panel’ control. The ‘Position’ property of the ‘Popup Panel’ should have a ‘mouse’ as one of the position options which would cause the popup panel to be positioned where the mouse was clicked when it is shown. The workaround is to manually edit the .view xml in a text editor to set the position property to ‘mouse’.
