I'm Dead In The Water Even with a Wired Two Button Mouse!

I’m glad you found the setting to turn right clicking on and that it’s working now! But there isn’t anything in that contextual menu that isn’t available in either regular menus, most probably in the View menu (not the Views menu ;) ) or other shortcuts or clicks in the list window. There isn’t anything you can’t still do except perhaps hide individual columns I’m not sure I put that in the View menu. 

It’s a very interesting issue, something is catching the keystroke of the control key before it’s getting down to the level of the list where the mouse click is handled and a contextual situation is checked for. None of that is in my code unfortunately so fixing it is going to require either making bug reports and waiting, or building my own lower level implementation of the control which is what I’m thinking I’ll do now since I don’t use but a tiny subset of what is supported in that monstrous implementation anyway.

I linked in an earlier email to the new list window documentation, most of the stuff is in there but I don’t think I documented whats in the View menu. Thats a pretty standard place to go look for ways to make changes to the current window like hiding the toolbar and such so thats all in there. Have a look at the new articles in the XTension Manual section of the wiki :)
