right click file - jump right to context menu without pressing "M"

(1/2) > >>

Hi Mr. Mouser.

98% of of the time, when I search for a file, I right click it, and immediately press "M" to get to the standard windows context menu.

Is there a way to skip or automate that step, and make FARR immediately route me to the windows context menu?

I'll probably think of a way as soon as I press "Post".

Thanks.

mouser:
try selecting the result and hitting ctrl+P, or if its the first result in the list just hit ctrl+P from the search field.

dwilbank:
Thanks sir.
That cuts out half the work!
Now I'll just make an AHK script to send "ctrl-p" any time I right click within a FARR results window.
We'll see how far I get.

Oh great. Now I've lost all right click functionality.
This will take a while.

dwilbank: try this script sample to do what you want.


--- Code: Autohotkey ---; The right-click button brings up the context-menu on Farr search result items. #Persistent#SingleInstance, Force#NoEnvSetTitleMatchMode 2     ; partial title match SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir% Menu, Tray, Tip, The right-click button brings up the context-menu on Farr search result items.`nWin+x to quit. #IfWinActive Find and Run Robot ahk_class TMainForm~RButton::  Send, ^p     ; Ctrl + p brings up the windows context menuReturn#IfWinActive ; win+x quits#x::ExitApp
note: to retain right click functionality, use ~RButton.

dwilbank:
Thanks sir!
I'll be able to try it out Monday.

I was trying to use #
RButton:: CLICK Send, ^p

in order to make sure that the proper file in the list was selected first before the ^p went into effect.

but looks like your ~ before the RButton might take care of selecting the proper file?

Thanks again.
