The OnClientPlotAreaClicked event could be similar to the OnClientSeriesClicked event. It might be used for charts which are very small in size and clicking an individual series is not so easy. For the time being the following workaround can be used: ASPX: <script type="text/javascript"> function pageLoad() { var chart = $find("<%=RadHtmlChart1.ClientID%>"); chart._chartObject.bind('plotAreaClick', plotAreaClick); } function plotAreaClick(e) { if (e.originalEvent.type === "contextmenu") { // Disable browser context menu alert('rightClick'); e.originalEvent.preventDefault(); } } </script> <telerik:RadHtmlChart runat="server" ID="RadHtmlChart1" Width="600px" Height="400px"> <PlotArea> <Series> <telerik:ColumnSeries Name="Product 1"> <SeriesItems> <telerik:CategorySeriesItem Y="15000" /> <telerik:CategorySeriesItem Y="23000" /> <telerik:CategorySeriesItem Y="10000" /> </SeriesItems> </telerik:ColumnSeries> </Series> <XAxis> <Items> <telerik:AxisItem LabelText="1" /> <telerik:AxisItem LabelText="2" /> <telerik:AxisItem LabelText="3" /> </Items> </XAxis> </PlotArea> </telerik:RadHtmlChart>
