        public MyContextMenuStrip(C1Editor editor)

            // save reference to parent control
            _owner = editor;
                
            // create menu items
            _btnCut = (ToolStripMenuItem)Items.Add("Cut");
            _btnCut.ShortcutKeys = Keys.Control | Keys.X;
            _btnCopy = (ToolStripMenuItem)Items.Add("Copy");
            _btnCopy.ShortcutKeys = Keys.Control | Keys.C;
            _btnPaste = (ToolStripMenuItem)Items.Add("Paste");
            _btnPaste.ShortcutKeys = Keys.Control | Keys.V;
        }
                
        protected override void OnItemClicked(ToolStripItemClickedEventArgs e)
        {
            Close();
            if (e.ClickedItem == _btnCopy)
                _owner.Copy();
            else if (e.ClickedItem == _btnCut)
                _owner.Cut();
            else if (e.ClickedItem == _btnPaste)
                _owner.Paste();
            base.OnItemClicked(e);
        }
                
        protected override void OnOpening(System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs e)
        {
            _btnCopy.Enabled = _owner.CanCopy;
            _btnCut.Enabled = _owner.CanCut;
            _btnPaste.Enabled = _owner.CanPaste || _owner.CanPasteAsText;
            base.OnOpening(e);
