I'm into a situation where the number of items of a ContextMenu has gone to a number like 3 thousand. In this scenario, the ContextMenu takes lot of time in loading itself. I'm trying to do UI Virtualization but without any luck.
The sample code is as follows:
<RichTextBox x:Name="FMWpfPopupControlHost" ScrollViewer.CanContentScroll="True" VirtualizingStackPanel.IsVirtualizing="True" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Width="300" Height="600" Focusable="True" Loaded="onLoaded1">
<RichTextBox.ContextMenu >
<ContextMenu VirtualizingStackPanel.IsVirtualizing="True" ItemsSource="{Binding GetLabel, Source ={StaticResource model}}" ScrollViewer.CanContentScroll="True">
<ContextMenu.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Initialized="TextBlock_Initialized" Text="{Binding getLabel}"/>
</DataTemplate>
</ContextMenu.ItemTemplate>
<ContextMenu.ItemsPanel>
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
<VirtualizingStackPanel IsItemsHost="True" IsVirtualizing="True" VirtualizationMode="Recycling"/>
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
</ContextMenu.ItemsPanel>
<ContextMenu.Template>
<ControlTemplate>
<Border BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding Border.BorderThickness}" Padding="{TemplateBinding Control.Padding}" BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding Border.BorderBrush}" Background="{TemplateBinding Panel.Background}" SnapsToDevicePixels="True">
<ScrollViewer Padding="{TemplateBinding Control.Padding}" Focusable="False">
<ItemsPresenter SnapsToDevicePixels="{TemplateBinding UIElement.SnapsToDevicePixels}" />
</ScrollViewer>
</Border>
</ControlTemplate>
</ContextMenu.Template>
</ContextMenu>
</RichTextBox.ContextMenu>
</RichTextBox>
Please guide me how can I resolve this issue?
Thanks!
