Hi,
Is there any control in powerplant like... Mac OS X if you select
any folder and ctrl+click give several option in which one of the
option is Configure Folder Action... How can i use the same
functionality with the same control in my own application. Any tips ?
Suggestions are welcome or sample demo which use the same kind
of control in powerplant.

Thanks,

Look at LCMAttachment - it is a general mechanism for supporting
contextual menus in PowerPlant. (Read the source code). You need to
attach the attachment, provide an appropriate menu, and if possible,
provide a representation of the selection as a simple aeDescriptor, for
example, if multiple files are seelcted, you'd pass an aeList of
aeDescriptors of typeAlias, with AliasHandles as their data.
