Context-sensitive menus not working
« on: October 23, 2015, 01:58:01 am »
Hi,
Whenever I right-click on an element (class, association etc), I see the same popup menu instead of the context-sensitive menu for the element I've right-clicked. YThe menu starts with Other>, followed by various element names (package, class, interface...) and end with Common>.

I looked through the various settings dialogs etc but dont see any appropriate settings to change. Running on Windows 7 with 2-button MS mouse with scroll wheel. Running EA 9.3.932 Professional

A printscreen would help (post on a public image hosting site and add link to it in an image tag)
Is this only in diagrams, or also in the project browser?

Have you tried turning off all MDG?

Hi,
See screenshot http://www.imageno.com/a7pc38ji2vxkpic.html

I turned off all of the MDGs and as you see i'm left with just "Common>" in the context menu (which I guess means that MDG is overriding the normal context menus?)

When I right-click in the project browser, I do see the appropriate context menu: http://www.imageno.com/yu5p07c5hu07pic.html

Scott,

What you are seeing is the quicklink menu, not the regular context menu.

Better ask Sparx support about this :-/

The keyboard shortcut for the quicklinker menu is Ctrl+Shift+Arrow. Have you (or any of your background applications) set up your mouse so that right-mouse click imitates Ctrl+Shift+Arrow?
