Resolved Disable Right Click Menu Compresing/Scrolling

[Craig McArthur]

Hi all

This bugs me every day and I never thought to find a solution until now, typical. Basically when I right click and it's close to the bottom of the screen the right click menu is small and more options are only available after scrolling.

Can I disable this effect and always have the right click menu open expanded?

Many thanks
Craig

In what OS and application(s) does that happen?
I use Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard and if I right click somewhere near the bottom (Finder and Safari are the ones I just tested), the right-click menu gets positioned higher and no compressing is done and no scrolling is needed.

Hi

I didn't consider this might be software related. I see it daily in Adobe Flash. I guess I'll need to look there for a solution!

Thanks for pointing that out haha

Do you mean the Flash web browser plugin?

No, Adobe Flash for making animations movies etc.

This right click issue happens in the editor environment (when I right click on the time line).

Ah, Adobe Flash Pro or Flash Builder.

Yeah, I just tried the Flash trial, and encountered this strange behaviour:

But when I right-clicked further closer to the bottom:

I'm quite new to OS X and assumed it was OS behavior and not software related. I'll chase adobe for a fix, thanks for your help simsaladimbamba (what a curious username you have).

It is from a German children's song: Auf einem Baum ein Kuckuck (saß) (On a tree a cuckoo (sat))
