Hello,
There's no event that occurs when you right-click anything. You can use the fact that a Ribbon component produces the PropertyChanging event before it is being shown; check sections "Updating Ribbon Controls at Run-Time" and "Determining a Ribbon Control's Context" in the Add-in Express manual - see the PDF file in {Add-in Express installation folder}\Docs.

Hello,
If you debug this call, you'll find that this event occurs several times for a given Ribbon control; each time for a different PropertyType value. You need your code to work only once e.g. when PropertyType is rcptVisible.
The context object provided to the event procedure is an object from the Outlook object model or nil. Say, if the context object is Outlook2000.Explorer, you can get Explorer.CurrentFolder. If the context object is Outlook2000.Selection, you can try to use Selection.Parent to get to the Explorer object in which the selection was created.
A starting point to the Outlook object model studying is https://msdn.microsoft.com/vba/vba-outlook.

Hello,
If you open the visual designer of the Ribbon context menu component and select the button you create, the Properties window shows the PropertyChanging event (you need to switch to events in the Properties window). Is this the case for you?

I don't find the equivalent of ADXRibbonPropertyChangingEventArgs
In your previous post I see this function definition:
procedure TAddInModule.adxRibbonContextMenuControls1Controls0PropertyChanging(
Sender: TObject; PropertyType: TadxRibbonControlPropertyType;
var Value: OleVariant; const Context: IDispatch);
In the Add-in Express VCL edition there's no equivalent for the ADXRibbonPropertyChangingEventArgs class (from the .NET edition). But note the parameters passed to the event procedure above: they correspond to the properties that the .NET class provides.

To be more precise here is what i would want to do:
If i am in outlook inbox, when a user right clic on one mail, the adxRibbonButton2 is disabled
If i am in outlook contact and one contact, when a user right clic on one of them the adxRibbonButton2 is disabled
If i could have a small example it could be great
Thanks a lot

Here is the code i have done.
procedure TAddInModule.adxRibbonContextMenuControls1PropertyChanging(Sender: TObject; PropertyType: TadxRibbonControlPropertyType;var Value: OleVariant; const Context: IDispatch);
var
btn:TadxRibbonButton;
begin
if (PropertyType=rcptVisible) and (context<>nil) then
begin
btn:=(Sender as TadxRibbonMenu).Controls[1].AsRibbonButton;
btn.visible:=FALSE;
end;
end;
This code works good. My problem is that i am not able to know if i am in outlook contact or outlook inbox. I need this piece of code in Delphi

When the component in question raises the PropertyChanging event *and* the property type being changed is rcptVisible, your code should cast the context object to the Outlook2000._Explorer interface from the Outlook object model and study the properties that the interface provides. Note that you should also take into account properties of the objects that the _Explorer interface's properties return; an example of such an object is the Selection object that the _Explorer.Selection property returns (see https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/VBA/Outlook-VBA/articles/explorer-selection-property-outlook). The result of that study is a boolean value that you use to return in the Value parameter of the adxRibbonContextMenuControls1Controls0PropertyChanging method above; the Ribbon button will be visible if you return True; return False to get the button hidden.

The PropertyChanging event is a way for you to let the Ribbon know what value to assign to a given property of a Ribbon control; to provide such a value, you assign it to the Value parameter.
I strongly recommend that you re-check section "Updating Ribbon Controls at Run-Time" in the Add-in Express manual - see the PDF file in {Add-in Express installation folder}\Docs.
