Hello. I want to create a hotkey using the Right Mouse button. However, I haven't figured out a way to reliably disable the default context menu from showing up.

If I a blank hotkey like this:

RButton::
return

Right click is effectively disabled.

However, if I do something that uses Menu, like this:

RButton::
Menu,DirMenu,show
return

The menu does show up all the time, but the default context menu will also show up if I right click, drag the mouse away from the custom menu, and release the button. The RButton release seems to trigger the default context menu, and I don't know how to disable that.

The above code is an implementation of this script:

RButton:
Sleep, 50 ; give the default context menu an oppotunity to show up
Send {CTRLDOWN}{ALTDOWN}{ALTUP}{CTRLUP} ; should close the default context menu if it exists
Menu, DirMenu, Show 
return

Idea taken from this thread:

How to detect and close a context menu?

Hmm, I found out that if I bound the key as RButton Up, it works a lot better.
