Prop	Default	Type
`as`	`'span'`	`AsTag \| Component` The element or component this component should render as. Can be overwrite by `asChild`
`asChild`		`boolean` Change the default rendered element for the one passed as a child, merging their props and behavior. Read our Composition guide for more details.

Data Attribute	Value
`[data-state]`	`"open" \| "closed"`

Portal

When used, portals the content part into the body.

`collisionPadding`	`0`	`number \| Partial<Record<'top' \| 'right' \| 'bottom' \| 'left', number>>` The distance in pixels from the boundary edges where collision detection should occur. Accepts a number (same for all sides), or a partial padding object, for example: { top: 20, left: 20 }.
`disableUpdateOnLayoutShift`		`boolean` Whether to disable the update position for the content when the layout shifted.
`forceMount`		`boolean` Used to force mounting when more control is needed. Useful when controlling animation with Vue animation libraries.

You can add special styles to disabled items via the data-disabled attribute.

        </ContextMenuCheckboxItem>
      </ContextMenuContent>
    </ContextMenuPortal>
  </ContextMenuRoot>
</template>

With radio items

Use the RadioGroup and RadioItem parts to add an item that can be checked amongst others.

vue

<script setup lang="ts">

  ContextMenuItem,
  ContextMenuItemIndicator,
  ContextMenuPortal,
  ContextMenuRadioGroup,
  ContextMenuRadioItem,

With complex items

You can add extra decorative elements in the Item parts, such as images.

vue

</script>

<template>

        <ContextMenuItem>
          <img src="…">
          Miyah Myles
        </ContextMenuItem>
      </ContextMenuContent>
    </ContextMenuPortal>
  </ContextMenuRoot>
</template>

Constrain the content/sub-content size

You may want to constrain the width of the content (or sub-content) so that it matches the trigger (or sub-trigger) width. You may also want to constrain its height to not exceed the viewport.

We expose several CSS custom properties such as --reka-context-menu-trigger-width and --reka-context-menu-content-available-height to support this. Use them to constrain the content dimensions.

vue

<script setup lang="ts">
import { ContextMenuContent, ContextMenuItem, ContextMenuPortal, ContextMenuRoot, ContextMenuTrigger } from 'reka-ui'
</script>

<template>
  <ContextMenuRoot>
    <ContextMenuTrigger>…</ContextMenuTrigger>
    <ContextMenuPortal>
      <ContextMenuContent class="ContextMenuContent">
        …
      </ContextMenuContent>
    </ContextMenuPortal>
  </ContextMenuRoot>
</template>

css

/* styles.css */
.ContextMenuContent {
  width: var(--reka-context-menu-trigger-width);
  max-height: var(--reka-context-menu-content-available-height);
}

Origin-aware animations

We expose a CSS custom property --reka-context-menu-content-transform-origin. Use it to animate the content from its computed origin based on side, sideOffset, align, alignOffset and any collisions.

vue

<script setup lang="ts">
import { ContextMenuContent, ContextMenuPortal, ContextMenuRoot, ContextMenuTrigger } from 'reka-ui'
</script>

<template>
  <ContextMenuRoot>
    <ContextMenuTrigger>…</ContextMenuTrigger>
    <ContextMenuPortal>
      <ContextMenuContent class="ContextMenuContent">
        …
      </ContextMenuContent>
    </ContextMenuPortal>
  </ContextMenuRoot>
</template>

css

/* styles.css */
.ContextMenuContent {

Collision-aware animations

We expose data-side and data-align attributes. Their values will change at runtime to reflect collisions. Use them to create collision and direction-aware animations.

vue

<script setup lang="ts">
import { ContextMenuContent, ContextMenuPortal, ContextMenuRoot, ContextMenuTrigger } from 'reka-ui'
</script>

<template>
  <ContextMenuRoot>
    <ContextMenuTrigger>…</ContextMenuTrigger>
    <ContextMenuPortal>
      <ContextMenuContent class="ContextMenuContent">
        …
      </ContextMenuContent>
    </ContextMenuPortal>
  </ContextMenuRoot>
</template>

css

/* styles.css */
.ContextMenuContent {
  animation-duration: 0.6s;
  animation-timing-function: cubic-bezier(0.16, 1, 0.3, 1);
}
.ContextMenuContent[data-side="top"] {
  animation-name: slideUp;
}
.ContextMenuContent[data-side="bottom"] {
  animation-name: slideDown;
}

@keyframes slideUp {
  from {
    opacity: 0;
    transform: translateY(10px);
  }
  to {
    opacity: 1;
    transform: translateY(0);
  }
}

@keyframes slideDown {
  from {
    opacity: 0;
    transform: translateY(-10px);
  }
  to {
    opacity: 1;
    transform: translateY(0);
  }
}
