[Solved] Removing right-click context menu

[Debbie Roberts]

Hi Telerik,

How do I remove the right-click context menu in the RadEditor content pane? By this I mean the one that has cut/copy/paste/paste from word/paste plain text/paste as html.

Also, is it possible to remove individual items from this context menu, e.g. remove 'paste from word' but leave 'paste as plain text'?

Hi Debbie,

You can see how to predefine the context menus of RadEditor in this live demo and help articles:
Context Menus and Context Menus (help).

Kind regards,

Hi Rumen,

I'd already tried the suggestions in those articles that you have given but they do not work.

I need to remove these:

<telerik:EditorTool Name="PasteFromWord" />
<telerik:EditorTool Name="PastePlainText" />
<telerik:EditorTool Name="PasteAsHtml" />

so that they never appear in the editor at all when it is right-clicked.

This is what I have done:

<telerik:RadEditor ID="RadEditor1"
    OnClientCommandExecuted="OnClientCommandExecuted" runat="server"
    Language="en-GB"
    ContentFilters="ConvertToXhtml,MozEmStrong">
    <telerik:ContextMenus>
        <telerik:EditorContextMenu TagName="BODY">
            <telerik:EditorTool Name="Cut" />
            <telerik:EditorTool Name="Copy" />
            <telerik:EditorTool Name="Paste" />
        </telerik:EditorContextMenu>
    </telerik:ContextMenus>
</telerik:RadEditor>

but when I go into the editor, and do a right-click, I still get the three special paste options.

How do I switch those three items off, so that they never appear anywhere in the editor?

Hi Debbie,

The following code works fine on my end:

<telerik:radeditor runat="server" id="RadEditor1" Language="en-GB" ContentFilters="ConvertToXhtml,MozEmStrong">
  <ContextMenus>
      <telerik:EditorContextMenu TagName="P">
          <telerik:EditorTool Name="Cut" />
            <telerik:EditorTool Name="Copy" />
            <telerik:EditorTool Name="Paste" />
      </telerik:EditorContextMenu>
            <telerik:EditorContextMenu TagName="BODY">
          <telerik:EditorTool Name="Cut" />
            <telerik:EditorTool Name="Copy" />
            <telerik:EditorTool Name="Paste" />
      </telerik:EditorContextMenu>
   </ContextMenus>
</telerik:radeditor>

For your convenience I have attached my project and video demonstrating my test at: http://screencast.com/t/NTRhYmZhZjk.
