## Notes

To activate the `Dialog` component from within a `Context Menu` or `Dropdown Menu`, you must encase the `Context Menu` or `Dropdown Menu` component in the `Dialog` component. For more information, refer to the linked issue [here](https://github.com/radix-ui/primitives/issues/1836).

```js:line-numbers showLineNumber{14-25}
<Dialog>
  <ContextMenu>
    <ContextMenuTrigger>Right click</ContextMenuTrigger>
    <ContextMenuContent>
      <ContextMenuItem>Open</ContextMenuItem>
      <ContextMenuItem>Download</ContextMenuItem>
      <DialogTrigger asChild>
        <ContextMenuItem>
          <span>Delete</span>
        </ContextMenuItem>
      </DialogTrigger>
    </ContextMenuContent>
  </ContextMenu>
  <DialogContent>
    <DialogHeader>
      <DialogTitle>Are you absolutely sure?</DialogTitle>
      <DialogDescription>
        This action cannot be undone. Are you sure you want to permanently
        delete this file from our servers?
      </DialogDescription>
    </DialogHeader>
    <DialogFooter>
