right click problems

Whenever i start drawing a mouse gesture, the (usual right click) menu allways pops up and gets in the way. It's a mess.

Are you exceeding your gesture timeout? Try increasing it...

I have the same problem sometimes, I can't draw anything. I always assume it was a problem with my usb port/system. It seems to occur more when my CPU usage is high.

My timeout is 250 ms, I have the same setting at work machine, and it doesn't exhibit this behavior.

Same here, every application when right click acts funny.

I doubt this is related, but i have two mice installed (and the problem happens with both of them). One is a standalone logitich 518mx, and the other is an mx700 part of the keyboard mouse duo. I jst upgraded to the newest version of 'setpoint' (2.46.544) and it didn't help.

Just figured out a workaround:... set strokeit to use the middle mouse button.

But it's an annoying workaround. I would like to see the problem get fixed.

Right click onto app window area, crashes the app! :/

Holy Thread Resurrection, Batman!

I found this thread because I had the same problem as the original poster. I guess it's too late to help him but if you're reading this, you probably might find my solution useful:
I had an Autohotkey-Skript running that activated inactive windows whenever you drag'n'dropped some file into it. Switching this off instantly let StrokeIt do it's magic undisturbed.
My guess is that non-autohotkey utilities in the same vein might also have the same negative effect.

Resurrected once again!

I have Windows 7 Professional 64-bit and StrokeIt 9.6 on dual monitors. I have only one disabled app configured in StrokeIt - Opera. Command editor shows only [Global Actions], Opera (disabled) and Visual Studio. Gesture timeout is set to 1 second.

All right click gestures finish with the standard right click action without firing the gesture action in Registry Editor, Ultramon and DisplayFusion Pro taskbar on the second monitor and some other applications. Is it possible to fix this? Pretty please?

When Ultramon or DisplayFusion configured to show on each taskbar only relevant windows, gesture "Minimize all" (Win+M) minimizes only windows on the monitor where the gesture was performed. While that is the way Windows works it would be cool to have a solution for that.

Managed to fix the right click problem in Windows 7.

Solution: configure Strokeit to run as a task using taskschd.msc with the following settings:

General

Run only when user is logged on
Run with highest privileges

Triggers

At log on
Any user

Setttings

Run task as soon as possible after a scheduled start is missed
