right click menu's in R14

[AHILL]

Is there any way to customize R14 so that the right button accesses menu's when a command is active... mostly looking for the options to the pline command.

thanks-

You could add to **POP0 menu (shift + right-click).
Like so:
***POP0
**SNAP
// Shift-right-click
[&Object Snap Cursor Menu]
ID_Arc [&Arc]A
ID_Close [&Close]C
ID_HalfWdth [&Halfwidth]H
ID_Length [&Length]L
ID_Undo [&Undo]U
ID_Width [&Width]W
[--]
ID_Tracking [Trac&king]_tracking
ID_From [&From]_from
ID_MnPointFi [->Point Fi&lters]
ID_PointFilx [.X].X
ID_PointFily [.Y].Y
ID_PointFilz [.Z].Z
[--]
ID_PointFixy [.XY].XY
ID_PointFixz [.XZ].XZ
ID_PointFiyz [<-.YZ].YZ
[--]
ID_OsnapEndp [&Endpoint]_endp
ID_OsnapMidp [&Midpoint]_mid
ID_OsnapInte [&Intersection]_int
ID_OsnapAppa [&Apparent Intersect]_appint
[--]
ID_OsnapCent [&Center]_cen
ID_OsnapQuad [&Quadrant]_qua
ID_OsnapTang [&Tangent]_tan
[--]
ID_OsnapPerp [&Perpendicular]_per
ID_OsnapNode [No&de]_nod
ID_OsnapInse [In&sert]_ins
ID_OsnapNear [Nea&rest]_nea
ID_OsnapNone [&None]_non
[--]
ID_Osnap [&Osnap Settings...]'_osnap

thanks Bob-

I checked my mnu file and it was the same as you showed (except:
ID_Arc [&Arc]A
ID_Close [&Close]C
ID_HalfWdth [&Halfwidth]H
ID_Length [&Length]L
ID_Undo [&Undo]U
ID_Width [&Width]W
[--])
but when I added this info nothing happened!
Perhaps I need to edit under POP7raw?
please advise!

thanks again-
adam

R14 Does not support context sensitive menus - That feature did not come out until the R2000 version of ACAD. *POP0 is not context sensitive, but always available when using a mouse button combination (Like Shift+Rclick)

Adam,
Edit the .mnu file, then do a menuunload / replace all / and select the .mnu file. Load it to 'recompile' the menu. (R14). The 'new' stuff should show up when right-clicking.

GREAT!
Got it working.... is there a way to access the secondary menu (second point....) or is this asking too much?

thanks-
adam

 

[ECCAD]

I'm not sure what you want here, but it seems to me, that just picking the (second point..) would be just (1) click (at that point), and Shift+RtClick + (getpoint) would just be more clicking ? How do you want to make it work ?

I would like to begin the pline command, right (or shift+rightclick) to access the arc, halfwidth (this I have accomplished) now once in, say the arc option, I would like to either right click or shift+rightclick to access the secondary options that pertain to the arc (ie. angle/ center/ halfwidth/ second point...etc)

does this help clarify?
thanks again-
adam
