Hi,
Have just switched over to a recent EToys image (about this system says EToys 3.1 latest update 2177). I have a 2 button mouse (well, a touchpad with 2 buttons underneath), and I want to access both halos
On my Windows PC (XP) it works quite well, I can access both menus: right-mouse-button for halo and middle-mouse-button for context-menu. But on my Laptop with touchpad and three buttons underneath and I have the same problems like you, Simon: I just get the halo and no context-menus.
Rita, is this Windows? As a (likely unhelpful) guess is it possible the touchpad buttons are configured so right does the same thing as middle? Aso on Linux I have funny behaviour if I inadvertently leave Caps On, but that affects left click,,,

and context menus.
I'm generally Squeaking around in an Etoys development image on Windows, so right click is useful from time to time. I still have not worked out how to be able to get both halos and context menu without changing (and changing back) the swap mouse buttons preference. Any suggestions here would be useful. Is a VM parameter tweak needed?
