Modify the rightclick menu options of cxgrid

Question

In cxGrid,where do you modify the menu options when you right click in the Grid?

I would like to get rid of that "Right to left reading order","Show Unicode control characters","Insert Unicode control character","Open IME" and "Conversion". I dont need them at all.

How can I do that ?

This is the standard context menu of the Windows EDIT control, and not part of the Delphi code behind the control that you are using. In other words, the Delphi control that you are using is wrapping some system provided functionality.

I suppose that it would be possible to remove some items from that, but it's not easy. The EDIT control does not offer you any way to remove these built-in items. This issue has been discussed at the devExpress forum:
