Right click mouse button?

[vollschauer]

If I start a game and go for example to the settings menu I can right click there and I'm back In the game, which is nice!
But if I do not start the game and go straight from the main menu to the settings menu, right-clicking there to go back (to the main menu) isn't possible.

So I tried this and it is actually working:

Code: Select all

screen preferences():

    tag menu
    key "mousedown_3" action Return()

Anyway I read the doc's here (http://www.renpy.org/doc/html/keymap.html) and noticed that Renpy expect a 5 button mouse ...

So how about if you just have a 2 button mouse? Does it work or should it be then "mousedown_2" ?
And how about "those MAC guys" I guess they also just have 2 buttons?
How can I make sure that I listen for a right-click, no matter if you have 2, 5, 7 or whatever buttons on your mouse ?

Or should I just stop worrying!?

My idea of the mouse key binding to get back to the main menu .... while in "main_menu" mode
doesn't work if I hover with the mous over hotspots or save/load slots or whatever.

Is there a way to get this working? I mean when I start a game right click works just fine everywhere to get back!?

You should bind whatever screen action leads to main menu when you click default buttons to the key, there is no reason for it not to work.

'mousebutton_3' is always a right button, don't worry about that. For mac people just make sure whatever key is usually expected to do your thing (Esc, I guess?) to actually do it.

Most Macs come with multi button setups (on the desktop, just two on the laptops not including gestures). I have 7 buttons myself (Logitech with OS X), but I don't think anyone expects anything more than left/right/middle wheel to every do anything in a game unless they set it up themselves…

Thanks everybody. But the main reason was:

I want to use the right button to get back from the settings menu to main menu. This does not work until I started the game ....once the game is running and you go to the settings menu ...you be able to get back by right click.

- Launch your project
- go staight to preferences
- right click --> nothing happen

- start your game
- go to preferences via the quick menu
- right click -> here we go ..back to game

Anyway found out myself ...first I did it with "mousedown_3" which isn't so nice, but this works:

Code: Select all

    if main_menu:
        key "mouseup_3" action Return()
