CDE Front Panel

[Danny Crisp]

Is there any way that the right hand mouse click can be disabled on the CDE front panel?

do you mean the actual front panel or desktop background aka root window menu .... ?

Disabling Menus
------------------

Removing mouse button bindings in $HOME/.dt/dtwmrc for button 3,
only affects the desktop menus, except for those posted by button 3
on the front panel.

The popup menus on the dtwm are divided into 2 distinct categories:

- The FrontPanel area, where controls such as the Clock
and Trashcan are located.

- The WorkSpace area, where the Audio Control, Lock,
Busy, and Exit controls are located.

The FrontPanel and WorkSpace popup menus are created dynamically
when button-3 of the mouse is selected over the desired control.
You can use the following resources to disable sensitivity of
these popup menus. Each of the resources listed below disables the
sensitivity of all popup menus created in the related area
(FrontPanel versus WorkSpace). There is no way to disable
sensitivity of a single menu within a given area.

Dtwm*FrontPanel*XmMenuShell*FPPopup*sensitive: False

Dtwm*FrontPanel*XmMenuShell*WSPopup*sensitive: False
