RMB question

Hello,

I am using KDE to develop web application. It is a very good environment. But, I find one thing which is very annoying. It is the Right click popup menu.

I used to use MS Windows and its popup menu only be popped out after right click is released.

In KDE, the popup will pop out when pushing right button and selection will be made when right button is released. Sometimes, when I just click the right button a menu item will be mis-selected for me.

I would like to config the RMB-menu to pop out only after the mouse button is released as in MS Windows. How could I do that. Thank you very much for any hint!

Best regards,
Jo

Hello,

Right click and then selecting option is a very natural operation for Programmers or Application users.

If it is so easy to select wrong menu pad during this process, it will made us not to use Linux desktop after play it for a while!

Because it is so easy to do the job wrongly, I consider to switch back to MS windows for development.

Best regards,
Jo
