MapPoint 2009 - Zooming Right Mouse Button

I see zooming has moved to the right mouse button (and panning in now the function of the left button). Firstly is it possible to revert back to the old method with code as it breaks our applications? If not...

In the BeforeClick event I currently cancel the right mouse click and intercept it with our own code. This is to prevent the MapPoint popup menus appearing. I would like to prevent a right mouse click if a popup menu is about to appear but not prevent the right mouse click if you are about to start dragging to create an area to zoom in on. Is this possible?

Thanks

Hi,

Yes you can. In the beforeClick you can check witch mouse button is pressed. Depending on that you can cancel it and use your own menu or not.

Re: MapPoint 2009 - Zooming Right Mouse Button

I know how to cancel, but I need to selectively cancel the right click.

E.g. If you right click normally, I wish to cancel the menu appearing but if you right click and drag I want to still allow this.

Can you determine what the standard function MapPoint is about to do when you right click and selectively cancel the right click?

Hi,

If you selectively cancel the right click the interface will do nothing.
