Select text and right-click?

Jan 17, 2022

Hi

I need to be able to allow users to select and right-click to allow them to look-up words, seek definitions, translations, Google, etc.

For some reason, whatever I try it won't work.

This is a crucial function required for effective learning!

Please help!

Thanks

Hello a Zayd! I am new to the community, but hope I can be of assistance to you.

Have you tried adding a trigger to the word that you want the user to be able to right click and have further options for?

You can place the trigger "user right clicks" on whichever word you want them to have more options for (in your example above, the word "feature"). Then, create a layer that opens up with more options when the user right clicks on the word. 

My apologies if you have tried these measures already and they have not worked, and please let me know if this helps!

Hello a Zayd,

Due to the ability to add right-click triggers to your project, the browser context menu is unavailable.

Here is a conversation where a fellow community member previously worked around the opposite issue, but it may lend a clue in how you could customize your course if needed.

Hopefully, others in the community will be able to chime in with design ideas.
