Ah, good point - and by playing around I see that the little key with the windows symbol allows for the same thing on a PC.
Only, when that key is released it brings up the start menu - so I should see if I can block that. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Martin Baxter Sent: Wednesday, August 03, 2005 2:00 PM To: How to use Revolution Subject: Re: [OT] Pigs Fly It's worth remembering that since system 8, Mac single-button mouse users can control-click to get the equivalent of a right mouse-button click. Revolution handles this fine, treating both actions as a mouse button 3 event. If you use a 2 button mouse on a mac you can right-click. With a one button mouse you just control-click to get the same result. So there is usually no real need to duplicate the functionality. Still it can be a pain when writing the documentation.
