How to remove/disable the context menu popup for GtkTextView?

I tried catching the menu-widget using the populate-popup signal callback and detatching the menu gtk_menu_detach(). Although the popup does not showup, I end up with a critical error

Gtk-CRITICAL **: 01:44:28.192: gtk_menu_popup_at_pointer: assertion 'GTK_IS_MENU (menu)' failed

How do I dissociate this menu from the mouse right-click action?

See

and

https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/gtk-migrating-checklist.html#checklist-popup-menu

So the basic idea is to catch the event and ask event handler to stop propagation of that event early.

Thank you Stefan. This worked :slight_smile:
