hi...

How can I force the Left Mouse Button to be in a mouseAddPt() mode, from my skill
code.

I optimistically called mouseAddPt() but it doesn't do the trick.

F.ex after I select a menu item it's mode switches to mouseAddPt().
After I click once in window it goes back to mouseSingleSelectPt() mode.

I want to switch it to mouseAddPt() without selecting the menu item again.

Is this possible ????????????????????????????????????????

My window is Virtuoso Schematic Editing window.

mouseAddPt() is specifically for adding points when you are in an enter
function, so I think what you are asking for is for the enter function to
automatically restart?

Not exactly what you ask but you can try these:

-options->editor "modal" on
-right click to repeat last command

Hi,

not sure at all what you're willing to do.

mouseAddPt() is a function you set as a bindkey.
When bound to a key, pressing this key acts as
pressing the mouse button. "staying in mouseAddPt
mode" doesn't make any sense to me, as you have to
move the mouse to a point before calling mouseAddPt
to input that point.

if you want to collect points user enters with the
mouse, you should use enterPoints() instead or any
other enterFunction.

My window is Virtuoso Schematic Editing window.
Not exactly what you ask but you can try these:
-options->editor "modal" on
-right click to repeat last command

Well this does the trick, maybe a little too 'mousy'. But thanks!!
