      Hi

      I'm new in Sketchup and looking for a solution like in AutoCAD. In AutoCAD you can activate right mousclick to Return
      Where can I activate such important thing in Sketchup?

        Hi Junky, hi folks.

        I am not familiar with AutoCAD enough to know what this "Return" means.

        If it is an undo, there is a button for that and, of course, the usual CTRL-Z.

        In SU, a right click brings a contextual menu depending on the type of entity that you are clicking on.

        Just ideas.

          "return" is an old term for "Enter" - and SU does not have the ability to map the right click to the enter key. It is something that a ruby plugin could add to itself, but it can't be added universally unfortunately.

          Lately you've been tan, suspicious for the winter.

            You could program your mouse software (depending on mouse) to a program specific command. By this I mean set right click in SU as Enter.
            The downside to this is it would then stop the context menu appearing which is far more important.

            I suggest just getting used to how SU works and working with the differences in both programs.
