CS4 - Right click disabled. WHY???

In all of the previous versions of CS as well as Version 7 you could Right click anywhere on the top bar of a "floating" image and see options to do the following:
Duplicate
Image Size
Canvas Size
File Info
Page Setup
I cannot do the same thing in CS4. Why would they disable this option? Can we change it back to the way of the previous versions? If so how? Who do we complain to about this?
I am not a fan of the opening images into the window so all you see is the file number followed by the "X" so you have to go to "Window" then choose "Arrange" then chose either "Float in Window" or "Float all in Window". I like to be able to see all of my images and make a choice when viewing them as to which I am going to work with first. Can we make a permanent change to the way the program operates?
Thanks,
Al

Well, there is good news and bad news. Which do you want first? :)
I'll start with the good news: You can turn off the "tabbed interface" by going to Edit>Preferences>Interface and removing the checkmark for "Open Documents as Tabs".
Now the bad news: The right-click on the title bar still won't work.
Here are some additional thoughts and suggestions:
- Set up your own keyboard shortcuts for the features you previously used via the right-click/title bar (Image Size, for example).
- Give the tabbed interface a fair shot. You might find it grows on you. Here are some tips specifically related to that:
* You don't have to use Window>Arrange. You can use the new "Arrange Documents" icon on the toolbar to go directly to "Float all windows" (it saves you one menu depth anyway). You can also assign your own keyboard shortcut for that as well.
* The Arrange Documents icon also gives you several other arrangement alternatives that you can select directly.
* If you are in tabbed mode and you want to float a particular image, all you need to do is grab the tab and pull it down into the workspace. If you want to move it back as a tabbed document, just grab the title bar and move the image to the top of the workspace until you see the blue line.

Is there a right click disabler ENABLER for Mac?

This is not a question on how to enable right clicking on the Mac.
Here's the question: is there a download or a way with the Mac to re-enable right clicking when there's a php script disabling right clicking on certain websites?

you could use the activity window in safari. (menu bar, window menu, activity) With this up, even if they disable right click, or they embed elements into the back ground the URL for the item is visible and access-able by double click.
another option is command + shift + 4; witch lets you take a screen shot of a specific area of the screen.
often right click disable is done through java.
if you enable the developer menu, you can do things like disable java on a specific page.
to enable the developer menu. Menu bar, safari menu, preferences, advanced tab, check "enable developer menu"

When viewing a right click disabled website, all website text changes to orange, anyway to disable?

When viewing a website that is right click disabled, the website text is turning to orange. If you hover the mouse outside the firefox window it returns to its natural color but once the mouse is in the window the text returns to orange. This hasn't occured with previous versions and does not occur with other browsers. Is there any way to disable this? Tried running in safe mode and the various solutions for websites not displaying properly to no effect.
Thanks

Why is my right-click disabled to prevent me from selecting "open link to new tab"?

I don't always want to replace my current window with my new selection of a link address. The right-click menu opens fine in IE. Nothing comes up when I right-click on a link in Firefox.

There are also websites that can disable the right-click context menu.

LightRoom 2.3 Does not show up in "open With" when image right clicked..Why?

Hi,
I noticed that when I right click on an image and highlight OPEN WITH LightRoom does not show up as a choice.. Just CS4 and other programs. Is there a way to get it to show up?

You can do it. Right-clicking and "opening with" LR is no different than dragging a file from Windows Explorer into the grid view. In either case the import dialog will be launched. If it's already in the catalog you'll get that dialog.
Windows is seemingly unpredictable from time to time as to adding file associations to the context menu. In any case, if you go to the bottom and click "choose program" you can select LR from the expanded list, or navigate to find it if necessary (which shouldn't be necessary).
Typically once you choose it once, it will continue to appear in the short list for that file type, though it depends what new pieces of software you install and how they're associated with file types either upon or after installation.
You can also drag the file(s) from your Explorer window into the grid view, or drag onto the LR icon on your desktop or in your quick launch, which will launch LR and bring up the appropriate dialog.

I cannot save photos from a webpage with a right click. Why not?

I cannot save photos from any webpage using a right click on Firefox, so I must open Internet Explorer to do that, yet my friend can do it on FF with his computer. Why is that?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I installed firefox

Issues with the right-click context menu not working can be caused by the [http://toolbar.yahoo.com/ Yahoo Toolbar] (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions)

Right click disabled on ActiveX Control

Hi all.
Is it possible to disable the right click shortcut menu in an ActiveX control? I know that I can do in a LabView control (right click on it --> Advanced--> Run-Time ShortCut Menu --> Disable), but I don't know for ActiveX controls, because they are different applications embedded on them and have their own events and shortcut menus...
Thanks,
Francisco.

Hi, smercurio_fc.
Thanks for your reply. But sorry I can't understand you completely. For example, I drop an instance of an Adobe PDF Viewer into an ActiveX Container, and this control has its own Run-Time menu you can access by pressing right button on it (this menu isn't that every LabView control has, but an embedded one). Is it possible to disable it through LabView? I mean, I want to right click this control and don't want this menu to appear...
Regards,
Francisco

Firefox doesn't allow me to email a webpage by right-clicking anymore - Why?

I used to be able to right-click on a webpage, and email the page. Then, something changed, and when I right-clicked, that option was not immediately available. Instead, I had to right-click, hover over a main category that then offered me two options, once of which was emailing the webpage through Yahoo. When I did that, the email would fill with the link, but a lot of junk about Yahoo, too.
Now, when I right-click just two weeks later, option is completely gone. So, now, I cannot email a webpage just be right-clicking. I have to copy the link, open an email, and paste the link. What happened, and can I get back?

hello cera78, mozilla does clean up its user interface from time to time. user interface studies have shown that this context menu entry is only used by <1% of the users.
if you've liked the functionality you could use an addon to recover it: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/send-link-in-context-menu/

In the 'Open with' Right click options - why do some apps show several times?

Notably, Evernote and Pixelmator (both downloaded from the Mac App Store)
It's hardly the biggest problem I know - but it does look rather messy.
Anoyone know a way to fix this?
Thanks in advance!

I felt a bit wary about downloading a third-party app to do this, so I didn't use that tool. However, you did help me by using the correct terminology which allowed me to find a solution which I could do myself.
I found the solution here, as provided by Macjack:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/19418151#19418151
Basically, copy and paste the code into Terminal and hit enter.
Thanks anyway QuickTime Kirk! I've thanked.

How to disable save as option in forefox when we right click on the image?

Function disableclick(event)
if(event.button==2)
alert(status);
return false;
</script>

Why would a control have the customize option dimmed out when it is right clicked?

A numeric control in one of the examples has the customize option dimmed out when right clicked. Why would that be? Is there a way to get it into the control editor or saved as a control?

Just to clarify my earlier statement:
While customization was greyed out prior to LabVIEW 8.0 for items in the dialog (=system) palette, even LabVIEW 8.0+ does not allow much customization. For example if I try to customize the "System Numeric" control, the "wrench" is still greyed out and the only thing I can do is resize the control horizontally in the control editor.
This is as expected!
Dialog (system) controls inherit their visual appearance from the OS, and the same control will look different under Windows XP, Windows 2000, or MAC, etc. They adapt to the desktop theme, including fonts, font colors, and other colors, etc.. The attached Image shows the same pair of controls and how they change appearance if I switch the desktop theme between "Windows XP" and "Windows Classic".
Customization would make no sense, because the appearance is determined by the OS, not by you.

Disable Right Click on Pop Up window

Does anyone know how I can disable the right click on a pop up window? Its an art site and the artists want their stuff protected even minimally. Heres my pop up code what do I need to add?
function popUpImage2()
    var popupimage = document.getElementById("image2").src;
    newwindow=window.open(popupimage,"POPUP","height=400,width=400");
    if (window.focus) newwindow.focus();

not 100% sure as it isn't tested but you could always do
function popUpImage2(){
    var popupimage = document.getElementById("image2").src;
     newwindow=window.open(popupimage,"POPUP","height=400,width=400");
    if (window.focus) newwindow.focus();
     newwindow.document.onmousedown = function(){
          if (event.button==2){
             alert("Right click disabled");
               return false;
That may work but it doesn't stop the person going to the file menu and clicking save so pointless really, you would be better off loading a dynamic php page with the image name in the query string.

Why has right click to open new tab become disabled?

SINCE UPDATING FIREFOX:
RIGHT-CLICKING TO OPEN NEW TABS DOES NOT WORK ANYMORE. HOW DO I REVERSE THIS???
AND
FIREFOX CRASHES VERY OFTEN NOW. HOW DO I STOP OR AT LEAST MINIMIZE FREQUENCY OF CRASHES???

Regarding the right-click context menu, which is the best description of the problem:
# Can no longer right-click links
# Open in New Tab is missing or grayed on the context menu
# Open in New Tab does nothing when selected
# Open in New Tab opens in the same tab when selected
Does the site make any difference or do you have this problem on all sites?
Sorry to hear about the crashes. When Firefox crashes, it usually records information about what was happening at that moment. You often will see the Mozilla Crash Reporter dialog come up. You can submit that data to Mozilla and share it with forum volunteers to see whether it points to the solution. Please check the last section of the support article "[[Firefox Crashes]]" for steps to get those crash report IDs, and then post some of the recent ones here.
If that's not possible, could you test in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
''If Firefox is not running:'' Hold down the Shift key when starting Firefox.
''If Firefox is running:'' You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
and OK the restart.
''Both scenarios:'' A small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Refresh).
Any less crashy?

Firefox immediately switching to new tab even when that feature is disabled on right-click open in new tab or on ctrl+click a link. Please help.

Firefox switches immediately to new tab or the immediate next tab if multiple tabs are open, even when the respective feature is disabled, whenever I open a link by -
1. Right-click > open in new tab
2. Ctrl + click a link
Earlier it did not happen like this. It is really very annoying. Re-installation and clean installation of the latest version did not helped.
And this is happening mainly when I am using Facebook. Earlier it never happened so with Facebook.

I don't have the divX plug-in and I still have this problem. Why should plug-ins that are not even triggered by the affected pages alter Firefox's behavior. Feels like bad architecture.

Facing Strange Problem in DIR HOW TO DISABLE THE RIGHT CLICK MOUSE IN THE DIRECTOR? (through parent script/ movie?)

Summary : HARD QUESTION : In the DIR file, the game runs well, right click = no effect. Coz I'm not making right click scripts. BUT in EXE file, right click = ERROR.
Explanation :
In the Adobe Director screen, this DIR file game is worked 100%.
I tested right click EVERYWHERE... NOTHING HAPPENS.
Because I don't make any programming with "on rightmouseup" or "on rightmousedown" command.
THEN, I published it into EXE...
I tested right click EVERYWHERE...I hoped the result will be the same as DIR tests....
WHEN I RIGHT CLICK IN THE AREA THAT'S GIVEN ON EXITFRAME ME, IT SHOWS ERROR, CHANGING PICTURES.....
this does not happened in the DIR file...
I didn't make a runmode program or anything else.... This is awkward... mystery for me...
WHY THERE'S A DIFFERENCE IN DIR and EXE... it should be exactly the same result.
I have used Director for years.... This is really strange for me...
>>>>>>>>HOW TO DISABLE THE RIGHT CLICK MOUSE IN THE DIRECTOR?
THIS ONE is useless.... It doesn't prevent the rightmouse click,...
      on rightmouseup me
             nothing
     end
      on rightmousedown me
             nothing
     end

Dear Adobe Forums friends
I need your help and guide through this problem...
In the game's dir file that is run on the DIRECTOR softwawre,
the game runs perfectly, I can do LEFT CLICKS (coz I programmed the script)
and when I do RIGHT CLICKS = there are no effect ( coz I don't do script for it)
LATER THIS GAME TURNED INTO EXE.
It supposed to run like the dir file as ABOVE. BUT STRANGELY, WHEN
I DO RIGHT CLICKS, it turns Error and showing as the picture attachment.
The right clicks that goes error are above the picture of numeric button only. (in DIR file
this run normal). I looked into the script behind the numeric button picture, there are only "on exitframe me", there are no script I made inside the "on exitframe me" that is triggering RIGHT CLICKS.
1. I wonder why there are differences in DIR and EXE effect
2. Why right click? Left click effects are all normal.
3. IS THERE ANY WAY TO DISABLE ALL RIGHT CLICKs since the beginning of EXE. So the game will be run normal. I don't need right clicks anyway, but whenever people do right click there will be ERROR.??
4. Is there any way to STOP THE MESSSAGE BOX TO APPEAR IN FRONT OF THE GAME? (I hate the Dirrector Error Message Box), or auto press OK.
NB: this game uses Buddy API Xtras, File IO Xtras.
Thx
David S
