Radial Menu -- I'm dumb, please help!

I am deeply embarrassed to be asking this, but...

 

I, personally, hate radial context menus, so when I started using Fusion, I found some way to turn them off. Today, I saw, while watching tutorial videos, that there appear to be features accessed through radial menus that are not available with the traditional context menus. With that in mind, I'm trying to turn radial menus back on, but for the life of me, I simply haven't been able to find the setting again. Hot tips?

 

I am on a Mac, and using Fusion 2604.1.48 arm64 [Native] 

 

Every tutorial I've found suggest that I should go to ViewUser Interface, except that my View menu looks like this:

Which is to say "there is no User Interface item in my View menu."

 

I'm at a loss... Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

 

Regards,

Ian

one way that people often turn off the marking menu is by changing the viewing hotkeys to a setting that binds, say, rotate, to the right mouse button.  Check this setting, and try setting it back to "Fusion".

 

But, I'm curious:  what commands/features do you think are only available on the marking menu?  I do not recall anything that is only available via this UI.

IIRC, it was something like "Between two faces" while creating a Joint. I watch so many YouTube videos about Fusion, there's probably little hope of finding the exact thing again.

 

And yes, I generally use the TinkerCAD setting, having most recently (prior to using Fusion) used TinkerCAD. I will post a followup if I find anything concrete after playing with this.

Ian

 

PS: After a year using the TinkerCAD setting, going back to the Fusion setting is incredibly frustrating. But it's good to know how to do it.
