ToDo: Change Position highlighting from Right click to Left click

Inconsistency between deleting a position and a configuration.

  1. Make a new configuration. (grib not needed)
  2. To delete the configuration
    • Left click to highlight the Configuration.
    • Select from top menu Config > Delete
  3. To delete a position.
    • Right Click to highlight the Position
    • Select from top menu Position > Delete

Change Position highlighting from Right click to Left click

Additional Functionality:

Or even reverse these if it is more standard practice, would be ok with me. Just has to be consistent.

Rick, This originated from me.

Do the following. 1) Generate 2 position anywhere on earth. 2) Generate 1 Configuration between these 2 positions. (no need to have any gribs) 3) To delete the Configuration you need to mark it by left clicking on it and then choosing Configuration -> Delete. This I think is the correct/intuitive way of marking something. Note that it is also possible to right click the Configuration to mark it up but I find this awkward. 4) Now you want to delete 1 of the positions. Trying to left click the position will not mark it up/highlight it. You need to right click it to be highlighted and selected, not left clicked which would be correct in my opinion. You then select Position->Delete. I would like to left click the position instead as is possible for the Configuration. Better yet, if you could first left click, highlighting it and then right click, opening a pull down menu where you can select Delete or Edit.
