Right Click menu

Post by Claude »

Good day
I just noticed that a Right Click on the KCad control offers a menu.
1) Is it possible to defeat this feature ?
2) Is it possible to access some of the features programmatically ?
For example, in my app, there are already some motions and keyboard sequences I would like to maintain. I therefore would need to access some of your features when a specific sequence is keyed in

Thanks

Claude,
1) Yes. See the first paragraph at http://www.dynoinsight.com/Help/Component/Menu.aspx . I recommend leaving it in debug configuration for yourself. Model>Explorer is extremely useful in my view. There are more....
2) Yes. The context menu exposes only part of KC functionality. Each command has relevant interfaces. There is no API to do something like ExcuteContextMenuCommend(theCommand). It did not make sense to us. I would be happy to answer questions for specific commands
Commands also have key shortcuts when the focus is on the 3D window. It should not interfere with yours
Regards
Nick
