Add ListView right click copy menu

Question

So i have this Dictionary:

 Dictionary<string, double> _statistics;

And this is how this is looks like:

When I do a mouse right click I want to be able to copy the cell value. How can I add this simple copy option that will mark only the specific cell and not all the row ? Is there something that already exist in the ListView ?

Populate my ListView:

foreach (KeyValuePair<string, double> item in _statistics)
    listView.Items.Add(new MyItem { IP = item.Key, Percent = item.Value });

<ListView.View>
    <GridView ColumnHeaderContainerStyle="{StaticResource ListViewHeaderStyle}">
        <!-- ip address column -->
        <GridViewColumn Width="200" Header="IP Address" DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding IP}" />

        <!-- percent column sent -->
        <GridViewColumn Width="200" Header="Percent" DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding Percent, StringFormat={}{0}%}"/>
    </GridView>
</ListView.View>

public class MyItem
{
    public string IP { get; set; }
    public double Percent { get; set; }
}

How is this connected to ListView? – AgentFire Sep 26 '15 at 19:29 — AgentFire, Sep 26 '15 at 19:29

I think you can catch the mouse click event at the list view level, and check the source element is a TextBlock. If so, set the clipboard text to the text block's value.

GridViewColumn.CellTemplate is the key. Define custom data template for your cell using CellTemplate of the GridViewColumn, and create a ContextMenu in there.
