Specifies which mouse button can be used to access the menu associated with a button.Syntax:

set the menuMouseButton of <button> to {zero | <buttonNumber>}

Examples:

set the menuMouseButton to 3

Use the menuMouseButton property to limit a menu so it can only be accessed with a specific mouse button.

If the menuMouseButton is zero, any mouse button can be used to open the menu. If the menuMouseButton is a number from 1 to 3, only that mouse button opens the menu.

The mouseButtonNumber specifies which mouse button was pressed:

  • 1 is the mouse button on Mac OS systems and the left button on Windows
 and Unix systems.
  • 2 is the middle button on Unix systems.
  • 3 is the right button (on Windows and Unix systems) or Control-click
 (on Mac OS and OS X systems.
