Hi guys, I'm trying the Dom3 demo on my MacBook and Ctrl-Click (for right click) doesn't work using the touchpad? Is there some setting I need to change or patch I need to install? Or am I an isolated (head) case http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif? Thanks!

They've got the right-click mapped onto command-click (command = apple key). You see that sometimes with cross-platform applications. In a lot of cases, coming from the Linux or even Windows world, you want control mapped onto command for Macs (eg, control-S for save ought to be apple-S). So the right-click combination occasionally gets remapped.

Thank you djo for correcting a mistake I've been making universally since reentry to the Mac universe in July.

Yup command-click works fine. Ctrl-click gives interesting options in other apps but not here. Now I think I will slink to the feds to change my name and obliterate this very embarrassed identity http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

On the bright side, my one concern is now answered and it is time to buy the commercial game http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif So ty ty!
