I've had this menu built in the following way:
AdxRibbonContextMenu added to add in and property ContextMenuNames set http://screencast.com/t/wtG20NDdl3zp
and property ribbons set to: OutlookMailRead;OutlookMailCompose;OutlookMeetingRequestRead;OutlookTask;OutlookResponseRead;OutlookPostRead;OutlookSharingRead;OutlookExplorer;OutlookMMSRead
There is button added to that context menu and Click event handler:
private void adxRibbonButton1_OnClick(object sender, IRibbonControl control, bool pressed)
{
if (control.Context is Outlook.AttachmentSelection)
{
//Selection released in below routine
List<Outlook.Attachment> clickedAttachments = new List<Outlook.Attachment>();
Outlook.AttachmentSelection sel = control.Context as Outlook.AttachmentSelection;
int count = sel.Count;
for (int i = 1; i <= count; i++)
{
clickedAttachments.Add(sel[i]);
}
importAttachments(clickedAttachments);
}
}
This is working in outlook 2013 and 2010.
With outlook 2016, when you right click attachment in explorer preview pane, control.Context is not AttachmentSelection it is Outlook.Explorer. I tried to read AttachmentSelection property of Explorer https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff869315.aspx but its Count property is 0.
How can I get right clicked attachment?
I will inspect other places where I use this menu (inspector etc.) but this clearly doesn't work. |

When you use context menu from inspector i.e. right click attachment in inspector situation looks better. Inspector.AttachmentSelection.Count is 1 so I guess I can work with that.
But as I stated above when right clicking attachment in Explorer its like this: http://screencast.com/t/mGyHOpJo5 |

Andrei, I already have a code similar to yours and Explorer.AttachmentSelection.Count is 0 when it arrives to event handling procedure.
Look at first line of screenshot I already posted above. That's the debug watch on opening bracket of event handling routine.
http://screencast.com/t/mGyHOpJo5
It says: (control.Context is Outlook.Explorer) and now look at properties i.e. the one pointed to with red arrow. You see that count is 0. Your code doesnt deal with that.
I can't really try your code because I am using 2007 PIAs but I have this which should be pretty much same. Everything works except Explorer.AttachmentSelection.Count is ZERO.
else if (control.Context is Outlook.Explorer)
{
List<Outlook.Attachment> clickedAttachments = new List<Outlook.Attachment>();
object o = OutlookUtility.OLLateBoundPropertyGetHelper(control.Context, "AttachmentSelection");
Outlook.AttachmentSelection sel = o as Outlook.AttachmentSelection;
int count = sel.Count;
for (int i = 1; i <= count; i++)
{
clickedAttachments.Add(sel[i]);
}
importAttachments(clickedAttachments);
}

Explorer.AttachmentSelection was introduced in Outlook 2010. This property is missing in the Outlook 2007 PIA. See also https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff869315%28v=office.15%29.aspx.

It can be fetched via reflection which is what I am doing. Please look at my screenshot. I am asking you 3 rd time too look at it.
http://screencast.com/t/mGyHOpJo5
My problem IS that Explorer.AttachmentSelection.Count is 0 which is what you can see on the top of SS.
My problem IS NOT that I don't know how to access that property.
I will put 2016 PIAs although I know the count will still be 0. |

Andrei your code and office PIAs 2016 has same problem. Attachment selection count is 0.
Here is minimal test case (it uses your code and office 2016 PIAs): REMOVED
Here is video (skip to 2:00 . I had to manually register add in since Create setup project context menu item doesn't work):
REMOVED |

Hello Velja,
[7936] !!! adxRibbonButton1_OnClick. context is Explorer
[7936] !!! adxRibbonButton1_OnClick. explorer != null
[7936] !!! adxRibbonButton1_OnClick. attachmentSelection.Count = 1
I suppose the Outlook build number is what makes the difference. I use Outlook 2016 16.0.6001.1034 32bit.

I upgraded OL 2016 to last and Context is not Explorer anymore. It is Outlook.AttachmentSelection again. I have one more instance of OL 2016 in company that has this problem. I will ask for upgrade. |

16.0.6228.1004
OutlookApp.Version shows extra 0 in the middle.
Look at the first if statement: http://screencast.com/t/QlDmXxks4L
I confirmed that old code is working now like it did in ol 2010 and 2013.
Looks like there is another update. I don't know if it affects outlook but its downloading. |

Note that 16.0.6228 isn't available through Windows Update. Yet, we've installed it and I confirm: the type name of the Context object is "AttachmentSelection". I wonder whether this behavior change will be included into upcoming Office versions.
