      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.

            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.
