customize right-click menu

Hello,


I was doing some customization to the right-click menu portion in
acad.mns and I wondered whether it is possible to run a lisp first
against the clicked object and depending on the return value of lisp,
create different right-click menu. The situations in which I'd like to
acheive this the most is for many different blocks. The goal is when
right-clicking on different blocks, different ShortcutMenu (which
envokes different lisp commands) will be displayed. I'm aware that in
VBA, there are events related to ShortcutMenu such as
BeginShortcutMenuCommand. But I did not find such events in visual
lisp. Are they exposed in lisp? Any suggestion? Thanks to all.

 

Our customized right-click menu has a title of Add Selected and when someone
clicks on a particular item, be it a leader, block, mtext, pline, etc... a
different command will be run.
I use the CONDition statement to determine what action should be taken based
on the object type (and name in the case of blocks).

Hope this helps.

 

Thanks for your reply Matt.

In above, if I understand correctly, your routine does not create different
menus when right-clicking blocks with different names, right? Rather, you
have those block names and corresponding lisp/actions set up in your
routine.

 

You got it!
