keyboard shortcut for mouse right click

Question

what combination of computer keyboards makes same as mouse's right click button?and also left click button?

Answer 1

There isn't one for left-click, though spacebar and Enter are often usable.

Right-clicking is usually a request for a context-sensitive menu which is performed on the keyboard either by clicking the context key (menu/pointer looking thing usually to the right of the space bar between Alt and Ctrl (along with the Windows key), or by pressing Shift+F10.

Note that about 65% of programmers who write Windows applications think that they should open a context menu in response to a right-click (WM_RBUTTONUP--which a true amateur thinks is WM_RBUTTONDOWN). This is of course incorrect. The correct event to open a context menu from is WM_CONTEXTMENU (which is sent immediately following WM_RBUTTONUP or if the keyboard key is pressed).

What that means is that 65% of applications out there won't respond to the keyboard request for a context menu.

Answer 2

You can define your own using software like autohotkey:

This code replaces:

• left alt to left mouse click
• right alt to left right click

Code:
