Disable context sensitive right-click menu

NX 4 and NX 5

I am curious if there is a way to disable the context sensitive right-click menus.

My problem resides when I am zoomed in tight on an object, there is no 'open' screen available to be able to right-click and access the 'pan, zoom, rotate, and fit' commands.  This forces me to go else where for the view related functions which have always been available in the right-click menu in previous versions regardless what type of object you are over.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

RE: Disable context sensitive right-click menu

If you hold the crtl button down when you are zoomed right in on an object then it will bring up the standard menu with pan, zoom, rotate and fit etc....

Life shouldn't be measured by the number of breaths you take, but rather how many times it's taken away...

RE: Disable context sensitive right-click menu

You will also find that Crtl and ALt are useful else where, for examble in sketch, alt will temporarilly disable all snap points and the same within a drafting when your annotations are trying to automatically snap to other notes, one of these (and I forget which) will turn of the auto align
