Right Click disappearance

[JamesL]

In the last couple of weeks I seem to have lost some of the right click function in the 3DS Max viewport.

 

I know it's not a hardware issue as I can right-click in other places in Max (e.g. tool bar, menus, modifiers, etc) and have no problems in any other software!

 

Bizarrely, I haven't lost all of my alternative right-click functions - I can still Ctrl-Right click (giving me Primitives/Transform menus), Alt-Right click (Transform/Pose/Co-ordinates/Set) and Alt-Shift-Right click (Reactor menus)...but I've lost Shift-Right click and Ctrl-Alt-Right click as well as simple Right-click.

 

As far as I can see there isnt anywhere to turn these functions on/off - has anyone come across this before?

 

For reference, I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Max but the issue remains - if anyone can shed some light on this I'd be grateful!

Anyone got any thoughts on this? Still got no right-click function...have found a work around for most functions but if anyone has a solution it'd be appreciated?

If I had to guess I would say Customize > Preferences > Viewport Control > Mouse Control > Untick 'Right Click Menu Over Selected Only.'

 

....but that is just a guess.

Hmm...worth a try...

...didn't seem to fix it - thanks for at least having a guess!
