The Right Mouse Button functions in NX

I use the right mouse button very often in the NX. Mostly I prefer to use the right mouse button to activate the commands shortcuts instead of selecting commands from the ribbon bar on the screen. To use NX faster you can use the right mouse button to reach commands related to features or objects.

The Right Mouse Button is used open interface pop-up menus. Pop-up menus change due to selected items by the right mouse button.
There are two methods for this

  • Click the right mouse button on a feature to open the pop-up menu.
  • Press and hold the right mouse button on the feature. Commands related to the feature will open in a square around the mouse cursor. Move mouse cursor on command and release the right mouse button on command.

Two methods open the same commands for the same feature. Also, this method opens different commands due to the selected features, edge, face, component in assembly…

Press and hold empty space on the screen, view commands pop up will open in a square around the mouse cursor. (I frequently use this method to activate “Fit” and “Snap View” commands)
