MOUBTN keyword disables all normal right click copy paste options on all fields of screen

Post by mcostello »

I have noticed that any screen that includes the keyword MOUBTN(*ULD CF22) Disables all default click behavior on the Genie screen. This removes all right click copy and paste functionality on all fields of the Genie screen. Is there a way to still use the MOUBTN dbl click function in the 5250 screens and leave the normal default right click behavior enabled in Genie?

Not at present. Right now when you define MOUBTN, the 5250 terminal code in Genie takes control of mouse clicks, so the browser doesn't receive them.

In Firefox, you can bypass this by holding down shift when you do the right-click.

In Chrome, you can install an extension like this one:

Bear in mind that you won't be able to use MOUBTN to handle right-click events if you use an extension like that.
