Electrical right click menu

[Glen Smith]

I'm using Electrical 2010 - mostly as vanilla, but working on getting to actually using the Electrical portion. In the past I ocasionally have noticed that when I right click to get the standard AuotCAD right click menu, I get the AutoCAD electrical menu instead. (insert wire, insert 45 degree wire...) While doing some customizing today I apparently did something that made it worse, I can't get the right click menu I am familiar with to come up.

We don't use wires yet so I don't really want that Electrical menu, any ideas how I turn it off?

you say you can't get the menu you're familiar with to come up. have you adjusted your right click customisation?

[Glen Smith]

I played with it a little more. If I select a line and right click I get the wire menu: Inset wire, insert 45 degree wire...

If I select 2 lines, or any other object, I get the shortcut menu.

I don't use the wire menu, I would very much like to know how to turn it off - and I supose to turn it back on later if I decide I need it. But I don't see any settings that seem to affect it.

Thanks

isn't it under the tools menu?

sorry, I can't look - this machine doesn't have autocad on it

It's called 'right click customisation' IIRC though

[Glen Smith]

Yeah it is. I've got time sensitive right click enabled, but I don't see anywhere to get rid of the Electrical "Wire menu", unless they consider that the shortcut menu. I just want the 'standard' AutoCAD shortcut menu.

Thanks anyway.

In the previously mentioned right-click customization menu you can setup the shortcut menu to come up the way you prefer. But if you are hovering over a line or possible "wire" type line when you click the right button, you will automatically be presented with the Wire Menu. I don't know of a way to turn that off, except to just remember not to hover over the line when you click it.

I have the same issue as well. Super annoying

Hello everyone there!

Unfourtanally, ACADE settings see all "lines" as wires so as far as I know you can't turn that menua off unles you choose to work with regular CAD which you can if you choos profile <<Unnamed Profile>> which allow to see regular AutoCad settings. I hope this would help you!!
