Redmine

right click

thanks for the hint. indeed, if I right-click in some areas of the list I get the context menu. I don't get it for clicks on the issues text or numbers. this interface is not very consistent.

The text and numbers are links, so we can't make them "right-clickable", the right-click action in the "blank" spaces is realised through javascript afaik. The problem here is to decide how much of the default behavior of the browser we want to hijack (i.e. would the redmine right-click work on the "issue title" link, then your browser's right-click wouldn't be available, so you couldn't "right-click" > "open in a new tab" for example.)

I had such problem on my own project. The good solution for that was "right-click" for the custom behavior and "dbl-right-click" for the default behavior of the browser.
