Right Click Menu Issues

[Bruce.Venne]

Hello. Can anyone tell me what the purpose of the seemingly different right click menu is and how I can disable it in favor of the more traditional ACADE right click menu? I have searched for previous posts on this topic but I have not seen any definite recommended solutions. I mostly use default system options aside from changing the cursor and pick-box size. Any feedback/guidance would certainly be appreciated, thank you in advance!

Go to Project>Other Tools. In the bottom row of little buttons, two buttons toggle between the right-click menu behaviors. Check that and see if it does what you want. They're named 'Right Click Menu On' and 'Off'. Alternatively you could use AEONRIGHTCLICKCONTEXTMENU or AEOFFRIGHTCLICKCONTEXTMENU at the command line.

If that doesn't get you together, post back and we'll see what else we can check.

You can close the marking menu by entering AEMM on the command line and changing the variable value to 0.

For the marking menu, you can see the following link:

Thanks for the responses @jseefdrumr and @chenj , much appreciated. I think my issue was refamiliarizing myself with the slightly differing right-click menus (see attached images for examples). When I right-click on a pre-defined ACAD electrical component (a relay contact for example), that produces a component-specific right-click menu. When I right-click on a custom-defined ACAD block, that produces the right-click menu I was expecting to also see with a pre-defined electrical component. I see that is not the case but using the AEMM command was also helpful to configure the component-specific right-click menu to a more traditional style that I am accustomed to seeing (note: ultimately I was looking for the EDIT BLOCK IN-PLACE command). Appreciate the feedback & guidance, thanks again.
