AutoCAD/shortcut menu
Expert: Scott Wilcox - 9/16/2011
QuestionQUESTION: When I right click on an object, i.e. pline, I used to get a drop down menu with all the things I could do with that object. Such as pedit, etc, Now I just get a basic menu without the specifics to the pline, such as pedit. Is there a variable or something that accidentally got changed? How do I fix it? Thanks
ANSWER: Right click menus are stored in the CUI.
Did you recently switch Profile or Work space?

QUESTION: I have been switching between paper and model. But in the meantime I think I figured it out. I also had lost the ability to use my DELETE key to erase objects. I did a general internet search and found the command PICKFIRST needed to be changed to 1 instead of 0 and it fixed both problems. THanks for your quick response though.

AnswerPatty:
I am happy to hear of your solution.
I am aware of the PICKFIRST issue, but I presumed you were still getting a shortcut menu, by the phrasing of your question. When PICKFIRST is off, there is no shortcut menu at all, so I discarded that as a solution.
