Introduction to SPMA for the TRMMIM

Whenever possible, we will instruct you on which mouse button to employ; however, menu buttons within SPMA applications will operate according to the convention employed by the active windowing system. By convention, menu buttons under the Motif windowing environment are activated by clicking the left mouse button (referred to as mouse button 1 in SPMA documentation), and there is no response to clicking the right button (mouse button 3). Under OpenWindows, menu buttons can be activated by clicking the right button, and convention dictates that the left button activates a default menu option; within SPMA, that default option will also display the entire menu. Because of this difference, references to activating a menu button will not include instructions about which mouse button to use. All other panels from which menus can be accessed, and all buttons which do not provide access to menus, will operate according to SPMA convention, as documented.
