Right Click In Menu

SkidAce · February 2019

Can't seem to get my macro to take the last step, i.e. rightclicking to bring up the list of saved views.

MACRO ZN
ZNAMEM
CMENUR
ENDM

Do you really intend to bring up the right click context menu at the end there, or is that just some attempt to attempt getting a right click for the first command? For the latter, that won't work, as CMENUR doesn't perform a right click, it is just the command that gets called as a result of a right click (in the drawing area, assuming no other command is active)

What you probably want is

MACRO ZN
ZNAMEM;
ENDM

or the equivalent

MACRO ZN
ZNAMEM

ENDM

What will this do again - somewhat unclear

My commands (hopefully that is what SkidAce needed) will simply bring up the Dialog to select a named view directly without having to answer the command prompt first (The dialog is the default right click action on the command line, but you can also manually type in a view name to bypass the dialog, but that requires you know the view name)

Can you clarify what the " ; " does?

And yes that made it work perfectly.

My goal is to assign it to a button icon, so I can choose my named view without navigating through the menus.

Now if I can remember how to add it as a button, haven't done that since CC2.

; is used to separate inputs. By placing it right after the command, you basically tell CC3+ that there is no input for the first parameter, which makes it use the default value (assuming there is one). (This is also what right clicking does, telling CC3+ to use the default value)

To add it as a button, just open a menu file and look for the lines starting with #, those are the toolbar buttons. Should be more than enough examples in there.

Thanks, I put this in the global menu file and it works great.
