Jerry,

Once you've sent the display file with the MOUBTN keyword to your display,
the right-button should work as defined in your DDS. Until you do that,
you'll get the popup pad.

If you like, you can disable the right-mouse button so that it will only be
recognized if the display file permits it with the MOUBTN keyword. To do
that, open your iSeries Access session and go the Edit|Preferences|Mouse...
menu. Then define your mouse as User-Defined and click on the Customize
button. Then select "No Action" with the Function drop-down box. Once that
is selected, click on the Right mouse button (on the screen, not your
mouse!) to assign "No Action" to that button. Then just save your mouse file
and click Ok to accept it.

I did a quick test and a display file with the MOUBTN keyword recognizes the
right-button.

Good luck!
Richard

Subject: iSeries Access - how to disable right click popup pads


I have a programmer working on an application that uses the MOUBTN dds
keyword in a display file (to enable using mouse clicks as an alternative
to pressing enter). The programmer wants to be able to use the right-click
attribute of the MOUBTN keyword, but right clicking in an iSeries access
session results in the default popup pad appearing. Is there a way to
disable the popup pad when doing a right click?

I suspect it has something to do with creating a custom popup pad, but
what I really need is for the right click to take no action in iseries
access so that the dds MOUBTN right click 'activity' will respond instead.

Regards, Jerry
