Desired WIT Context Menu is not Extensible?

Question

I was able to try the program provided in this article and made it worked

http://blogs.msdn.com/b/team_foundation/archive/2010/06/24/extending-work-item-tracking-context-menus.aspx. My problem is, the context menu that I desire to extend seems to be not included. Below image is the context menu target:

It seems that the context menu I desire is not included in the list of extendible context menus. Am I missing something here.

Hi Jess,

Thanks for your post!

In the AddCommandToConnectMode method, can you tell me the menuName, you can refer to the followings about the menuName:

public static class WorkItemTrackingMenus
{
    //context menus
    public const string QueryBuilderContextMenu = "Query Builder";
    public const string ResultsListContextMenu = "Results List";
    public const string WorkItemEditorContextMenu = "Work Item";
    public const string ResultListColumnHeaderContextMenu = "Results List Column Sort";
    public const string WorkItemTENodeContextMenu = "Work Items";
    public const string QueryFolderTENodeContextMenu = "Query Folder";
    public const string QueryTENodeContextMenu = "Query";

    //toolbar
    public const string WorkItemTrackingToolbar = "Work Item Tracking";

}

Hope it helps!

Best Regards,

Kathy,

That's may problem. I don't know it too. However, I tried adding one item selection to all and it worked for some, unfortunately it did not in the mentioned context menu. Here's the summary:

    public const string QueryBuilderContextMenu = "Query Builder"; - It worked
    public const string ResultsListContextMenu = "Results List"; - we don't need this
    public const string WorkItemEditorContextMenu = "Work Item"; It worked
    public const string ResultListColumnHeaderContextMenu = "Results List Column Sort"; - we don't need this
    public const string WorkItemTENodeContextMenu = "Work Items"; It Worked
    public const string QueryFolderTENodeContextMenu = "Query Folder"; It worked
    public const string QueryTENodeContextMenu = "Query"; - It didn't work
    //toolbar
    public const string WorkItemTrackingToolbar = "Work Item Tracking"; - It didn't work
