Description: Reference for signal WebKit.WebView::context-menu

### Signal

# WebKit WebView::context-menu

unstable since: 6.0

#### Declaration

    gboolean
    context_menu (
      WebKitWebView* self,
      WebKitContextMenu* context_menu,
      WebKitHitTestResult* hit_test_result,
      gpointer user_data
    )

#### Description [src]

Emitted when a context menu is about to be displayed to give the application a chance to customize the proposed menu, prevent the menu from being displayed, or build its own context menu. To customize the proposed menu you can use webkit_context_menu_prepend(), `webkit_context_menu_append()` or `webkit_context_menu_insert()` to add new `WebKitContextMenuItem`s to `context_menu`, `webkit_context_menu_move_item()` to reorder existing items, or `webkit_context_menu_remove()` to remove an existing item. The signal handler should return `FALSE`, and the menu represented by `context_menu` will be shown. To prevent the menu from being displayed you can just connect to this signal and return `TRUE` so that the proposed menu will not be shown. To build your own menu, you can remove all items from the proposed menu with webkit_context_menu_remove_all(), add your own items and return `FALSE` so that the menu will be shown. You can also ignore the proposed `WebKitContextMenu`, build your own `GtkMenu` and return `TRUE` to prevent the proposed menu from being shown. If you just want the default menu to be shown always, simply don’t connect to this signal because showing the proposed context menu is the default behaviour.

If the signal handler returns `FALSE` the context menu represented by `context_menu` will be shown, if it return `TRUE` the context menu will not be shown.

The proposed `WebKitContextMenu` passed in `context_menu` argument is only valid during the signal emission.

Default handler: The default handler is called after the handlers added via `g_signal_connect()`.
Available since: 6.0
