CUSTOMIZING MOUSE BUTTONS & DOUBLE-CLICKS
The actions of mouse buttons are customized in BricsCAD by the Mouse tab, as are double-click
actions, as shown by the figure below:
Customizing mouse button actions
To have the click of a mouse button display a menu to the user, you employ the same macro construction
as in AutoCAD. See the code highlighted in the figure below:

Double-Click Actions
Double-click actions in BricsCAD are also customized with the Mouse tab. Double-click actions
are customized in BricsCAD in the Mouse tab of the Customize dialog box. Go down to
the Double-click actions section, and then edit the Command field.
In general, double-clicking an entity causes the Properties pane to appear, but this can be
changed; indeed, Bricsys has assigned a number of other commands to the double-clicking
of specific entities. Double-clicking a hatch pattern, for example, executes the HatchEdit command.
The lists of double-clickable entities is nearly identical for BricsCAD and AutoCAD. Now, some
AutoCAD entities are not native to BricsCAD. As in AutoCAD, you can add and remove doubleclick
actions to and from BricsCAD. To do so, right-click an existing action and then choose an
option from the context menu. Inserting a double-click action takes the same steps as adding
a menu item; see “Creating a New Menu Item” earlier in this chapter.
