I had to reinstall autocad 2009 on a new hard drive. On the previous install the right-click in drawing area short cut menu worked. On this new install it does not from the onset. I have done enormous research online and nothing seems to help. One topic was posted here which is why I am asking here. His problem was the mouse, I think, it wasn't clear. Anyway here goes:
 checked the settings in options/user pref/right...-yes
changed them, enter works fine, command bar short works, tool bar short works fine, shift-rightclick brings up osnap menu, and reset back in a varity of ways
rebooted
checked pickfirst set to 1-yes
checked noun/verb relation set-yes
check mouse settings -all is good
manually changed shortcutmenu variable-no good
 the only thing different in this install from the last one is that I have upgraded to Carlson Civil Suite 2010

Type SHORTCUTMENU in the command line. When asked for a value, set it 11, wich is the default when you install AutoCAD.
You can also set this in Options-> User Preferences
You can find more information in AutoCAD Help.
(Please, give feedback) ------------- Less is more |
