A popup menu item can be clicked by both left mouse and right mouse buttons.
How can I detect which button was responsible for clicking the item?

I want to call different functions based on what the user clicked

I don't know if the Windows API even exposes that information.

Maybe test which mouse button is down when the callback starts.

tried this doesn't work as the you have to release the button to click it so isKeyPressed will never return true

Not possible with the windows api

but you can always implement your own popupmenu. Give the object a mousedown event. Then if it's a rightclick create a new form at the position of the control or mouse, and make it's items respond to mouseover like a popupmenu does, and a mousedown where you can see if it's a left or right click

Ah, that would be a chore, since i'm just modifying the disassembler's popup menu. How hard would it be for you to implement so that CE passes the mouse clicked? Something like:

That's not possible to do without breaking too many things
