They already do that. Try it.

The question you're really asking is
>how do I get a MouseDown(2) to make something that's not a context menu emit a context menu, when the trigger for emitting a context menu is MouseClick which definitionally entails releasing the button?
>and how do I get the thing-that's-not-a-context-menu to ignore mouse events from that point onwards?

I think you need to take a higher-level view and find a more effective way to do whatever the task that you're trying to accomplish is, rather than getting bogged down with context menus.

For example, could you:
- learn to do this entirely on the keyboard?
- write a script to do the whole thing?
- rearrange your workflow so this step isn't required?
- write some background automation so the task just does itself?

This is a bizarre claim that you probably should substantiate.

Well that's convenient.

Sorry you don't know enough about the Windows event model to know why it's ridiculous.

Posting le smug reddit face doesn't actually show you were right.

Autohotkey is actually quite good for this kind of thing.

Start out by writing down exactly what you're trying to do, as if you were explaining it to a very stupid alien who knows nothing about planet earth and has no common sense, but will do exactly what you tell him exactly how you told him to.

From there it's just a case of reading the instructions and converting your directions into a program.
