Hello frankdeprins,

It makes sense. It seems that default behaviour for M$ Windows operating system family is behaviour you were talking about (I siwtched OS from Linux to test it Wink

). What is funny here is that GTK apss for example Firefox have got different behaviour on Unix like operating system and Windows.

Of course we can emulate this behaviour when Windows is detected by simply using "#ifdef" preprocessor macro. Example (pseudocode):

#ifdef PLATFORM_WINDOWS
  // Right up invokes context menu
#else
  // Right down invokes context menu
#endif

P.S.
This change should be carefully introduced (What happend with custom Ctrl's - Should we move WhenBar to Ctrl class to make it independent from operating system).

Sincerely,
Klugier
