Disabling Right-Click Menus in v5.8.0

autodeskguest

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!

    Other people have requested exactly those features long enough to

    finally get them... Otherwise, Cadsoft would be blamed to not listen

    to the customer requests. You can't serve /all/ people best.

     

    I can understand why CadSoft has to add new features.  The point though is

    that all new features which change existing behavior should be made

    optional with the default being the old way.

    ...

     

    I tend to this viewpoint, too.

     

    OTOH, CadSoft probably makes (more) money with new customers than with

    the existing ones upgrading to the current versions. So it's reasonable

    to address these - eventually by making the UI more "standard windows

    like" (as with the implementation of the context menu, for example).

     

    As long as such changes are a) documented, and b) reversible by

    configuration, it doesn't really matter to me.

    Both has been the case up to now.
