Thanks,

Sure. Just handle Mouse Down? Event where you can "swap" buttons.

Back button opens link menu on left-click that won't go away

Recently whenever I left-click the back button, there is a drop-down menu that appears. It indicates that it is only supposed to show up if I either right-click or click and hold the left mouse button (also I have to click elsewhere to make it disappear), and it's annoying the heck out of me. How do I make it stop appearing for left-clicks?

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Java System Tray Menu- pop up on left click.

Hi,
The system tray menu will normally pop up on mouse right click. I need to make this pop up on mouse left click. Is it possible? I had tried a lot and failed to find a solution. Please help me on this issue.
Thank You.

Hi,
Thank you for your answer,
I had tried a lot to make pop up the system tray menu on mouse left click. Finally i got a way to do this. My code is,
MouseListener ml;
        ml = new MouseListener() {
            public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {
                if (mouseflag == 0) {
                    try {
                        Robot robot = new Robot();
                        // RIGHT CLICK
                        robot.mousePress(InputEvent.BUTTON3_MASK);
                        robot.mouseRelease(InputEvent.BUTTON3_MASK);
                    } catch (Exception exe) {
                        System.out.println("error=" + exe);
                    mouseflag = 1;
                } else {
                    mouseflag = 0;
        public void mouseEntered(MouseEvent e) {
          System.out.println("Tray icon: Mouse entered");
        public void mouseExited(MouseEvent e) {
          System.out.println("Tray icon: Mouse exited");
        public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e) {
          System.out.println("Tray icon: Mouse pressed");
        public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent e) {
          System.out.println("Tray icon: Mouse released");
      };here i had created a mouse right click using code (robot class) on mouse clicked. Now i can pop up menu on left click. But now my issue is, i am not able to remove right click functionality. I think this is in built function for system tray menu. please help or give suggestions on this issue. I think that the way which i used to pop up menu on left click is not a good one. If i removed right click then this code may not work.
Thank you,
Sreejith P.M.

The left-click options in the web browser are disabled in the latest version

In all the previous versions of firefox I've had no issues in the drop down menu when left-clicking to either open a link in a new tab or save highlighted text or even saving an image to my drive. However now with the latest update (20.0.1) I have come across something which disturbs me by the full length of the drop down menu (too long, too much stuff on it) and half the options are disabled, which makes it harder for me to surf the web as I am used to doing. I have taken a screenshot of my issue . I hope it will help. Also, that my OS is windows 7. http://www.darkworlds.se/images/other/firefx20bug.jpg

This is a problem related to having an outdated version of Firebug, most likely you've disabled automatic update of addons.
The easiest way to fix this is to go to Tools -> Addons, and then clicking the wheel button up near the search field. From there you choose "Check for Updates" and unless you need specific versions of an addon, choose the "Update addons automatically" while you are there.
You will most likely have to update Firebug twice, as it updates to an outdated version, and from there to the newest one.
This is the solution I stumbled upon as I had the same exact problem, where I tried creating a new profile and the likes.

Flash: After right clicking, left click causes browser to go back one page

Flash version:MAC 10,1,102,64
Operating system: Mac OS X 10.6.4
Browser: Both Firefox and Safari
Hello
When I right click in a flash area / window, I can bring up the menu to access settings, global settings and the like. I can left click options on this menu, for instance, I can bring up the settings menu in the flash area.
However, when I attempt to left click anywhere on the flash area after right clicking, my browser will go back one page. For instance, if I right click on the flash area, don't click any of the 'right-click menu' options, left click on flash-free area in the browser window, then my browser is fine...but if i then left click in the flash area my browser will take me back one page.
This happens in both Safari and Firefox. I am not sure at what level this problem is on: OS, browser, or flash...but seeing as it happens on Safari and Firefox I assume it may be either a Flash or an OS problem.
I've Googled for this but I can't find any similar questions...has this happened to anyone before?
Cheers

Popup menu with right-click

I am investigating the feasibility of adding "Personalised Menu"
functionality to a Forms application. The idea is that regardless
of what form a user is currently in, he/she will be able
to right click on the canvas to display a list of "favourite screens".
Next, s/he will pick a screen from this list and hey presto will
be navigated to it. There will need to be "Do you want to save
your changes?" processing of course before hopping to the new screen.
When the user right-clicks s/he should see a customised list of menu options:
user "Peter" could have e.g. a menu with options "Screen A", "Screen C", "Screen D";
user "Paul" could have screens E,F,G,J on his list and "Mary" could have
screens A,B,K,Q,R. There will be companion admin functionality to allow
users to maintain the options they want on their personalised menus but
this is easy to code using standard forms functionality.
To simulate the functionality I have created a little PERSMENU form
to display the user's personalised list of screens on a standard
multi-row block.
This is executed via a CALL_FORM in the PRE-POPUP-MENU trigger.
Of course if I use a called form to display the menu options then
I need to check if the calling form has any unsaved changes beforehand.
Which is a bit clunky.
Another alternative would be to add a PERSMENU block to each form
in the application. If the user were to right-click on a form's canvas
the form would attempt to navigate to PERSMENU and then execute_query.
But of course WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM triggers etc could prevent the navigation
and once again the proposal is a bit clunky.
I have been reading the "Popup menu with left click on 10g" thread at
Popup menu with left click on 10g
and am interested in the javabean provided by "Nalin R". Unfortunately
I am new to java and don't understand the code. But this looks to be
tantalisingly close to what I am trying to do albeit with "left-click"
rather than "right-click".
Has anyone attempted anything similar? Am I right in thinking that the
javabean approach offers the best solution and if so is there any
sample code that would help?

Opening Videos from Left Menu Requires Right Click

I have multiple Windows 7 computers with iTunes installed. I have noticed that whan trying to open videos from the left menu, the only way to get it working is to wight click on the mouse, left clicking does not work. Does anyone know anything about this and how to resolve it?

I encountered the same problem. A quicker workaround then restarting firefox is to just minimize and maximize. Don't know why but that works.

Left clicking mouse acts as if I'm right clicking, and comes up with right click menu?

Hi I was wondering whether anyone could help me with this, I've had this problem for a week or so now and it's beginning to get frustrating.
I have a newish iMac, bought in January, and I've been having this problem the last week or so, where when I left click something, it acts as if I am right clicking it and it comes up with the right click menu. I has happened mostly while on the internet (chrome), but also when I'm just on my desktop, but less often.
It only happens every so often, and rights itself after a couple of minutes. What could be causing this, and how do I stop it?
This is my first ever post on here, so I do apologise if I have been vague or I have posted this question in the wrong section, I am also new to macs (well since January).
The mouse I am using is a dell wired mouse, a couple of years old, which I just plugged in without the need of installing software etc.
Many thanks for any help in advance.

Hello & welcome!
No worries, you did great for a 1st post, & this is generally a friendly place.
It sounds light it's the Mouse button from here, to test it...
Go to System Preferences > Mouse, change the Primary button to the Right button... does the Right button ever do that now as the left button?

Left click in input feild produces menu

Regardless of screen or Internet location this problem is extremely annoying. Many times I am trying to change the words in a search input field. Clicking on the left button to highlight or highlight drag a number of words fails but a menu which looks similar to the add-in menu for Tab Mix Plus appears. Tab mix plus has no entry for turning on a left click menu or turning off a left click menu. Nor does Firefox. How can I get this menu to stop appearing. Continuing to left click final works after the menu has appeared several time. Some times it does not do it at all.

hello bmazak, it sounds like an extension might be interfering here. please try launching firefox in safe mode once and see if the issue is occurring there too.

How do I disable the brushes popup menu when I left click in Photoshop CS5?

How do I disable the brushes popup menu when I left click in Photoshop CS5? I am trying to use the clone stamp and I am not able to get a sample because of this popup menu.

LOL, I can't even begin to complain with the number if times I misread questions, and then try to break my own record for the number of typos in a single post.
The image above was taken on a photgraphic weekend where the group (of all young ladies ) I was travelling with, set us a photography challenge. The one above was my response to a 'faceless portrait'. The only other one I attempted was this response for a picture of a 'wild animal', featuring camera club president Liz.
Oh what fun we had, laughing and laughing until our faces fell off.

Ctrl and left click not working in DW CS5

When Im working in design view for some reason my links are not working when I press ctrl and left click. To make them work I have to right click and select follow link.
Its not a major problem because I can still carry on, but its annoying!

I presume you're talking about Live View, because links don't work in Design view.
One thing you can try is selecting View > Live View Options > Follow Links Continuously, or select the option from the Live View Options menu in the Browser Navigation toolbar.
It works only for the current tab, but is useful if you're following a lot of links.

Can't open new tabs with double left click on tab bar in FF29.0.1?

I've always enjoyed how tabs work in FF, mainly with them being on the bottom (which I had to find a work-around for by making the userChrome.css file - the "about:config" modification no longer works) and also being able to double left click on the tab bar to create new tabs.
With the most recent update, double left clicking on the tab bar no longer has a function, and to create new tabs, I must now middle click. It's not a big deal really, but is there a way to change this back?
I searched through some options on the "about:config" page, searched "tab" and found an option there: "browser.tabs.opentabfor.middleclick" that seemed promising. I changed the value to "False" but it didn't change anything - in fact, middle clicking still creates new tabs.
I tried adding a modified function with "leftclick" in it, just to see if it might do anything but, nothing.
Any other suggestions for restoring the double left click function to create new tabs? Thanks!

browser.tabs.opentabfor.middleclick
If set to false, middle-clicking <u>links on web pages</u> opens them in a new window. It probably also affects bookmarks, history entries, and items in the address bar drop-down menu.

You need an add-on. Here are two I know about:
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/ Classic Theme Restorer]. In the add-on's option window, click the Special tab and check "Tabs toolbar: double click opens a new tab"
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/tab-mix-plus/ Tab Mix Plus]. In the add-on's option window, click the Mouse icon, then the Mouse Clicking tab, then the Double-click tab below that. [http://tmp.garyr.net/support/viewpage.php?t=3&p=mouse-clicking The Tab Mix Plus help page] has more details.

I'm working with a Mac, with 10.10.2 system. My Audition program has been working fine for years now. But, there is a problem I can't solve. All my markers on a given piece of audio allows me to left click to highlight the time signature until my audio reaches the one hour point. From there on, the left click will not give me the drop down menu in order to copy and then paste into an Excel sheet I then have to submit for the proofing purposes. After the one hour mark, I can only control/c in order to highlight, then when I slide up to my Excel sheet, I'm able to right click and paste. Why is the program not, all of a su allowing me to left cllick the mouse and have a drop down menu give me the option to "copy, " as it does for any time signature markers up to 1:00:00.000?

Which version of Audition? With the latest version of Audition running on a Windows 7 machine I can't get a dropdown menu at all when I left click on the time in Markers List. The only way to do it is with cntrl-c.

Newest version 18.0.2 - some hyperlinks on some pages cannot be opened by simple left-click

Firefox 18.0.2 - only in this newest version - in many cases (but not all) hyperlinks on pages (e.g. search results and also common links on some sites) cannot be opened by simple left-click, Firefox just do nothing at this moment, only refreshes current page.
I mean not opening in a new tab but even in the same tab - link is not opened anyway though link is correct itself, it opens if I do this by right-click or CTRL+click (open in new tab or new window) .
Strange issue which I clearly see now after last update to version 18.0.2 (on Windows XP). Everything have been okay a little ago on previous version.
