Hi J. S.,
This problem has come up before.
See
http://ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/ptolemyII/ptII3.0/mac.htm
and
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.soft-sys.ptolemy/browse_thread/thread/7bc82c044d96ebda/523be2eb2ba355d9?lnk=st&q=ptolemy+right+click+macos&rnum=4&hl=en#523be2eb2ba355d9
I don't have a mac, so I can't easily test this.
The place to look is diva/canvas/event/MouseFilter.java
2006-12-30 14:15 cxh
* diva/canvas/event/MouseFilter.java, lib/diva.jar
(rel-6-0-beta.[1,1]): Mac fixes (Dan Higgins)
2006-11-19 21:36 cxh
* diva/canvas/event/MouseFilter.java (1.23): Added
InputEvent.META_MASK to _modifierMask. The Macintosh requires
META_MASK for selecting relations and right clicking. However, a
comment further down says: // Do not or these masks in, they
will conflict with right mousing // on transitions in modal
models //| InputEvent.ALT_MASK //|
InputEvent.ALT_GRAPH_MASK //| InputEvent.META_MASK; However,
even with the change, right clicking on transitions in Modal Models
seems to work.

Maybe mac will work now?
2004-05-27 14:08 neuendor
* ptolemy/vergil/basic/PopupMouseFilter.java (1.3): modified to
deal properly on windows and mac.

* diva/canvas/event/: ExtendedMouseFilter.java (1.1),
LayerEvent.java (1.12), makefile (1.4): added ExtendedMouseFilter
for dealing with extended modifiers correctly.
I'm sorry that this problem keeps coming up. I almost switched to a
mac, but macs don't have the mouse embedded in the middle of the
keyboard that I've become fond of.
If you fix this, I can fold it into the CVS branch.

--------
Creating relations in FSMs in Ptolemy II involves CTRL-clicking and
dragging. In OS X, CTRL-click is a replacement for right-clicking. Thus
we just cannot create relations in FSM in OS X, which is a major
problem. Is there a known solution?
Thanks,
