I am using AutoCAD 2012 and I like right click menus.
If I use ctrl + right click, I get a menu with snap options, and if I use shift + right click, I get the same menu. How I can change one of these menus without the other is affected, and perhaps also how to get an alt + right click menu.
I have two menus that I use often and I would like to add them to my mouse buttons. Attached is a picture of the two menus I like and the two buttons. The Shift + Click has the correct menu already (Osnap menu2) my problem is adding my custom menu to the CTRL + Click doesn't work. I labeled Osnap Menu 1 and 2, 1 being the custom menu I have use in the past and 2 being the default osnap menu that comes with the cui file. How to get the second button to read my menu rather than both read the same osnap 2 menu?
I have recently downloaded the 2011 version of Maya for my mac. I have a single button mouse and, up to now, when I have needed to right-click I simply press ctrl and click the mouse. However, Maya is not allowing this so I cannot even start to learn the programme.
PS CS5 crashes when I click on Photomerge from either PS or Bridge. It crashes every time. It doesn't amtter if I have preselected files or click Photomerge from within a blank document.
Laptop is a Dell XPS with plenty of free HDD and 8GB RAM.
Software:
PS CS5.1 x64 WIN7 Pro x64
All software was legally purchased through a registered Adobe dealer but Adobe won't assist me as they've shipped CS6.
I am trying to change my shortcut menus. Instead of modifying the current default mode, I am trying to make a new default mode menu and preserve the original. I have made the new menu and named the aliases POP501 & CMDEFAULT. But, when I right click the mouse, civil 3d still references the original default mode menu. How do I change this?
I have recently purchased Corels VideoStudio X5 Pro. Having successfully created my own menus in Ulead Photo Impact 12 and imported into Video Studio X5 (and actually getting them working) I have been creating new frames to use in the menus, mainly so that I can change the color to suit whatever background I use. I would like to be able to choose the color of the highlight and also possibly how the frame is highlighted.At the moment the frame is highlighted by completely covering the scene within the frame with either a yellow or cream highlight. I would like to create a border within the frame and have this as the highlight.
I have tried doing this and naming the border as HLI but when imported into Video Studio X5 it does not highlight the border, but the whole scene as before.
I need assistance. How doI change the font size or sizes of menu options on photoshop elements 9 so I can see to use the program, everything is so tiny, even the X's to close out the program.
What I would like to happen is have the full property menu open when I select more than one line of text and then double click. As it is, the quick properties opens (in 2011 and previous, full properties opened) . I still want the Edit Text window to open if I double click only one line. I have gone into the user interface and customized some of the items I want for double clicking, I know how to do that, but I'm not sure what change to make for the multiple item double clicking. I actually would like the full properties anytime I pick and dbl-click anything, you know, like the old days.
How do I change the short cut keys in only the right click menu? For example I used to be able to right click then type M for move in 2012. Now in 2013, I have to right click then click V for move. I also used to be able to right click and type O for rotate. Now nothing happens. I have to click again on rotate rather than typing a key. There's a few others I'd like to change.
When I change the User Preferences "right click customization" to "Repeat Last Command" and "ENTER" then hit "Apply & Close" it reverts back to the default settings.
The sheet set manager is an awesome tool (i just started using it a week ago). The problem is, whenever I place a view on my sheet, (by right clicking>place on sheet) and it says "Scale: 1:1 Right-click to change scale", i right click and all i get is:
"Invalid point. Specify insertion point:"
But here's the twist: Sometimes it does work (like 10% of the time) but most of the time it annoyingly doesn't. here are some photos:
*i'm using Autocad 2014 32bit
*using Autocad 2011 32bit in our office but still experience the very same case.
as you can see i have already attaced the "site development plan" view here (after a few tries) cadtutor 1.jpg
this is how i place views on my sheets. i can also drag and drop, but i prefer right clicking it. (are there other ways? share them too!) cadtutor 2.jpg
here, i've already clicked place on sheet and it's asking me to right click if i want to change the scale. cadtutor 3.jpg of course i do and i need to, but this: cadtutor 4.jpg
like i said, sometimes it works. I do a few rituals (i just invented) before getting it to show this scales list like right clicking rapidly or holding rightclick repeatedly but not rapidly. and "SOMETIMES" it does work. but more often, it doesn't. cadtutor 5.jpg
How do I change the right click and edit association so a jpg opens for editing in CS6 instead of CS5 in Windows 7? I'd like to keep both programs installed and Windows no longer offers the ability to edit the "edit" association.
I have a photo of a very complex, irregular floral painting with a background that has various shades of black and grey.
I want to click on any part of the photo, get Gimp to mass change that color code to black. The reasoning is that eventually, I will end up with a perfectly black background.
Various Gimp tools that rely on tracing a line of some sort with the cursor are not usable due to the extreme complexity of the pattern in the photo.Is this kind of simple hexadecimal point and mass change possible in Gimp?
Opacity is shown along with Diameter and Hardness, when Alt - Right click is done while using a round brush (in this case, with the Dodge tool).I guess it's late, but I don't sense a gesture that causes the Opacity to change in this mode. I tried all the modifier keys and moving the mouse every which way. I even tried the scroll wheel, but couldn't get the Opacity to change.
How do I change the Opacity (besides the old traditional way)?
It seems that, in CS6 Photoshop, I could RIGHT CLICK, and a small panel would drop down at cursor location, allowing me to change size, hardness, and roundness of the brush.
I have recently updated to 13.0.1. The technique described above no longer works, but I can't be sure that this happened after the update. I may, as often, have screwed up a preference checkbox.
is this possible. A lot of programs auto-duplicate when you drag and press either the shift or ctrl or alt key. Its a habit ive gotten pretty into. Plus, its a little akward for me to go from a left click immeadeitaly into a right click with the mouse. I always feel like i've dragged the object a little bit when I switch fingers. it would be great to just add a hot key of shift+drag to this feature, wouldnt even have to turn off the standard right click option, I could deal with both being there.
Just getting used to elements 11 - the tilt shift in the guided edit does not change when I click on the icon, then click and drag. I am sure I am following instructions correctly, but nothing changes when I try to rezone the area I wish to have showing without blur. I could do in operation in the expert mode, but it should work in guided edit.
I've had to reinstall CS5 after a new Windows installation. Never had a problem with it before, but now I have the issue where if I click on a tool that has sub-tools, it now expands to show them. Before, to access them, I had to click and hold for them to appear. Now with them expanding on the first click, it's interrupting my work flow.
Additional issues have arisen while I'm here, such as, when doing web work, I'll change the rectangular marquee to single pixel horizontal (e.g.), make the selection, do what I want with it, then press M to adjust another single pixel line, but it'll return to the full rectangular marquee, like it resets.
I'm running a test at the moment with Open GL disabled, to test drivers or display issues, but it's doing the same thing.
Since we updated to CC, I have a very good chance of this not working evey time I try it. Maybe 10% of the time, it will select the word/line as it should. My prefs are identical for this feature as they have for the past several version of InDesign. My partner also has trouble with copy/paste in InDesign and Illustrator as well.
Just reinstalled Photoshop CS5 after needing to reinstall Windows 7. Now instead of being to just grab the tool I want, it produces the flyout each time and I have to re-choose what I want to use. This is rather annoying and time consuming, if I am using the same tool.
Can it be coming from Windows or just Photoshop. I did try resetting the preferences and nothing changed.
I use cs2 and when in photoshop when i left click on any of the tools for instance the pen tool it brings up the menu to select pen tool, freeform pen tool, etc.. rather than just selecting it. I am use to having to right click on the the pen tool to get that menu, i was wondering how i would change it back. Same thing happens when i left click on all the tools on the tools menu, just used the pen tool as an example.
I just installed AutoCadLT 2014 on my MAC using Parallels. In my pulldown menus for "Layers" , "Linetypes" , "Colors" etc the words inside and stacked on top of each other and I can only see fragments of the choices. They are also clipped horizontally as well.
How to change the size of the fonts within in these pulldowns and the width of the pulldowns themselves?
I use my own drawing templates with CUI files for layers, dims and notes to scale. Since I've been using LT2012, I've found that the CUI files don't appear in the drawing template. No problems re-loading them but I'd like them in the template if poss. Problem seems originate with LT2012 - didn't experience any difficulties with LT2011.
Someone here at the office started up autocad and the only things that showed up were "File", "Window" and "help" in top menu bar are the only things that show up. Where did the rest of the tools and camands go, and how can I get them back.
Last night i closed down my cad as per usual but this morning fired it up and my pulldown menus are missing-file,tools etc. The only one left if ltxpress which has been on my system for months now. I have turned my system off and rebooted but still missing.
