Mousefunctionality IC5 in IC6

Mondeo205

 Hello!

 Is there a way to change the functionality of the mousebuttons in IC6 so that it is the same as in IC5?

In detail i mean, the right- and the middlebutton, so that you can rotate instances etc with the right one and get this little menu with the middleone?

I think the functions are called lxHiMousePopup and  lxCmdOptions!

Thanks for the answers!

  •  The mouse buttons can be set as bindkeys that you can reset in your .cdsinit using hiSetBindkey. The key names are:

    Key          Keyboard key

    Btn1Down Left mouse button
    Btn2Down Middle mouse button
    Btn3Down Right mouse button
    Btn4Down Scroll wheel up
    Btn5Down Scroll wheel down
    DrawThru1 Click and hold left mouse button while moving mouse
    DrawThru2 [same for middle mouse button]
    DrawThru3 [same for right mouse button]

    Find the names of the commands in IC51 and see if they are available in IC61. Then rebind these commands to your mouse buttons in your IC61 .cdsinit.


    The bindkey information is found in the Design Environment Guide.

  • I would caution against changing Right mouse button binding in IC6.x There are a lot of useful new context sensitive pop-ups that are implemented in 6.x You will miss on these functionality if you change the mapping.
