Context Menus

Is it possible to show different context menus by right clicking
on different areas of a picturebox f.e. ?

An option is to build all the menus as subitems of the the main
context menu and hide/unhide them with the visible method.
Is there an other option on doing this?

Thanks in advance,

ContextMenu or ContextMenuStrip?

With ContextMenuStrip: Handle it's opening event:

   Private Sub ContextMenuStrip1_Opening(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs) _
      Handles ContextMenuStrip1.Opening

      Dim p = DirectCast(sender, ContextMenuStrip).SourceControl.PointToClient(Cursor.Position)

      'Modify the ContextMenu here depending on p.

   End Sub

Maybe there's already property in the ContextMenuStrip that reveals the position inside
the SourceControl, but I couldn't find it.
