Disabling Right-Click Menus in v5.8.0

autodeskguest
autodeskguest over 15 years ago

Is there a way to disable the right-click context menus in v5.8.0?  I have

just switched from v4.16, and have gotten used to being able to simply

right-click to perform actions on a group without the additional click in

this new context menu.  This makes accurately moving groups of parts

difficult, as the group snaps to where your mouse cursor is when you click

Move:Group in that menu.

 

Love EAGLE!  One of the best pieces of software I've ever used!

    I would like to add to Warren's comment, that the eaglerc.usr file can

    be modified through the EAGLE command line. Simply type the following:

     

    SET Option.ToggleCtrlForGroupSelectionAndContextMenu 1;

     

    That way you don't have to go looking for the file in the EAGLE folder

    of your C drive. I retract my former comment.

     

    Regards,

    Jorge Garcia
