Squeak context menus

I am having trouble finding examples of how to bring up my own right-click
context menus. I am guessing that I want CustomMenu for the menu itself, but
how do I hook it up to the right-click button? I cannot seem to catch the right-
click (umm..yellowButton) event.
Thanks!
Robert

Have you looked at doYellowButtonPress:, hasYellowButtonMenu methods?

Subbu, thanks for the reply!
I see the hasYellowButtonMenu method, but not the other. Problem is I cannot
figure out how to hook it all up and am looking for an example or a link to an
example or more info.
Thanks!

Which version of Squeak are you using? I see
TextPlusMorph>>doYellowButtonPress. The version history shows it was added by
update 2001trnMisc11May08-KR (Karl Ramberg?).

You can also see the methods ParagraphEditor class>>initializeTextEditorMenus
for examples on how to add custom entries. When yellow button is pressed,
MouseMenuController queries this menu through getPluggableYellowButtonMenu and
then sends the model:orSendTo: message to it. You can trace through these
calls.
