Remove context menu

(1/3) > >>

antjimmav:
Hello, everybody. I'm new here. I'm sorry if this topic exists, but I haven't found it.
What I want is to remove the context menu that appears when we do right or left mouse click. I mean, you do mouse click over the desktop and nothing must happen. Of course, I don't want to change the mouse behaviour when clicking on a icon of the wbar, but outside of wbar (on the desktop).
I don't want if I have to modify any file or modify the source code and recompile.
I'd be very greatful if I get some help. Thanks a lot.

jls:
maybe u can try another desktop manager

Lee:
I don't think that's user-configurable with the flwm window manager (someone please correct me if I'm wrong there), though I think it can be done with jwm.

I personally would favor having the menu appear on right-click but not left-click.  There are some folks who use TC on Macbooks - do they have only one button?  If so, is it a righty or a lefty?  :)

Thanks for your answers. What I really need is to limit at maximum the use of the computer. Only one desktop with only one icon (firefox). Nothing else. No menu, no toolbar, no shell...
Any suggestion, please?

It sounds like you are building a so called kiosk with a locked browser-only access. You can do that in several ways, for example using OPERA in kiosk mode, it is what I used in the past with other LINUX distro.

Xfce4 has also a kiosk mode but I have never tried. I had a bad experience with Firefox in kiosk two years ago, situation may be different now.

There were some related discussions already in the forum here a while ago.
