Description Andre Weinand CLA 2002-10-23 16:31:13 EDT 
[from Jeremy E. Denton]
Right clicking on an item in the file list (say for selecting the properties of a project) will 
not generate the context menu for the item the mouse is hovering over. It creates the 
context menu for the previously selected item. In other words, it doesn't select the new 
item first and then generate the list. A little annoying when you have to "left-click" on an 
item and then "right click" on it later.

Felipe to investigate and advise (the widget is the emulated tree).  Low 
priority because we hope to use the native tree in future.
Comment 2 Felipe Heidrich CLA 2002-11-07 10:31:27 EST 
works for me on Motif (note, since it's an emulated widget it should be the 
same all over the platforms). There is nothing to be fix in the emulated tree.

I have noticed the same annoying behaviour in Motif i.e. you have to left-click 
(after right-clicking an item) and THEN right click to get the proper context 
menu. This was noticed in the Extensions pane of the plug-in manifest editor.

This is also the case in the java editor. Right clicking on an item will not 
move the cursor, so requiring the left click-right click shuffle.

The original problem no longer occurs in I20030520.

OK to close.
Comment 7 Felipe Heidrich CLA 2003-05-26 10:31:12 EDT 
fixed with the new Tree.
