If you are using AutoCAD 2011, it uses cuix files as menus, and not mnu, mns or cui.

Anyway,

1- Issue "CUI" command.

2- In the dialog, search in the left pane and find "Shortcut Menus" item. All the right click menus are defined here. If you add any option to "Command Menu", it will display inside all commands containing options (i.e. in LINE command when you have choices of Undo or Close). To add your desired options to right click menu when there is no command active, insert it into "Default Menu". To add option to shift-right click menu, add it to "Object Snap Cursor Menu".

thanks for your reply!

i known that, but i have so many PC, each PC use other Autocad version, so i cant use only cui or cuix file for all version. I want use mns file because all version support that kind. I mean, when i load private menu by command MENULOAD, right click menu also loaded. But i dont know how to do that. Do you know?

I checked AutoCAD 2005 acad.mnu. If you want to add your desired item and command to right click menus, you must insert it to: ***POP501 (**CMDEFAULT) and ***POP503 (**CMCOMMAND)

 

***POP501
**CMDEFAULT
            [[b]Context menu for default mode[/b]]

it mean, i must insert my menu code into both ***POP501 and ***POP503 ?

as the code you posted, POP501 likely the menu default right click, but POP503 is use for menu when use command relate osnap point. that right? I also found in mnu file of previous version cad ( 2004, 2005) and i see that have menugroup in code:

***MENUGROUP=ACAD
***BUTTONS1
$M=$(if,$(eq,$(substr,$(getvar,cmdnames),1,5),GRIP_),$P0=ACAD.GRIPS $P0=*);
$P0=SNAP $p0=* 
^C^C
...

***POP0
**SNAP
              [&Object Snap Cursor Menu]
ID_Tracking    [Temporary trac&k point]_tt 
ID_From        [&From]_from 
ID_MnPointFi   [->Poin&t Filters]
ID_PointFilx     [.X].X 
ID_PointFily     [.Y].Y 
ID_PointFilz     [.Z].Z 

 

and my menu code

***MENUGROUP=PRIVATE

***POP11
**STANDARD 
...

does the menu for right click have to insert to MENUGROUP ACAD or not?

[Ahankhah]

... POP503 is use for menu when use command relate osnap point. that right?

Not correct. ***POP503 (**CMCommand) popups when you are inside a command with options (i.e LINE, when you specified at least one point.)

[Ahankhah]

does the menu for right click have to insert to MENUGROUP ACAD or not?

You can load several menus into AutoCAD, so I offer you to make your own menu and save it in AutoCAD support folder (the folder in it ACAD.MNU exists). When in AutoCAD, issue "MENULOAD" command and load the menu.

 

Of course, the method doesn't work for POP 500+ popup menus, so you must change those in ACAD menugroup.
