[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1608251, member: 38864"] When in use with a mouse, it's CTRL-click. For keyboard only, it's.... hmmm.... actually there isn't one.

The simplest way that comes to mind is using a macro app like Keyboard Maestro. For example, I just created a new workflow category that is "always active", then an action triggered by CMD-F15. Pressing that combo would simulate a click of the right-mouse button at the current cursor location. See screen cap for example: [ATTACH=FULL]21041[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
