HOW DO I EDIT OSNAP POPUP MENU

It's been a while since I've used this method and I don't recall how do I:

1) Set my middle mouse button to bring up the OSNAP popup menu?

2) Edit the SNAP options (order, etc.) in the OSNAP popup menu?

I am using ACAD 2002.

Thank you in advance.

Set MBUTTONPAN = 0
(or use Ctrl+RMB)

modify the acad.mns. Goto "***Pop0" and you will see what to do.

Juergen,

Thanks,

That worked perfectly!

Garth.

 

And watch-out for your customizations in the MNR file, as well (Geez!
couldn't they have made it a bit simpler?!)

 

The menu source file is the acad.mnu file. The ***pop tag identifies the
sub-menu for pop-ups, POP0 being the cursor menu.

This is the Mouse button menu. Button 1 is always "Pick" and is not on
the menu. Button 2 is Right and Button 3 is middle. //= "remark" (code
not executed.
