FR:
Right clicking a face annotation in the viewer should automatically open up the faces context menu.


Currently, you have to left click the face annotation fist, then you can right click it only


Thanks for considering this,
Ben

+1 - I actually totally missed this sub-menu because I wasn't clicking the region area first.  If possible, this would be quite helpful.

Face annotations are no different from other annotation types. Each annotation type has or may have a custom menu.
Right-clicking a face annotation opens the context menu. I don't see the problem?

Before it was required to first select an annotation to switch the context menu between Viewer and annotation.
As I wrote in the release notes and in reply to one of Bens FRs (see there) right-clicking an annotation (not only faces) does now automatically select it. And opens the menu.

Keep in mind that many users out there work with annotations in IMatch extensively and depend on a consistent user interface to avoid re-training employees.
Many of you will just have discovered annotations because of faces...

I think, that would be what i asked for.
Hm, but I don't get it.

When i right click a face annotation (on the green border) should it automatically select the face annotation and open its context menu?
For me, it doesn't

Thanks for guidance.

When I right click a face annotation (somewhere inside the box) it is selected and the context menu opens.
Are you using IMatch 2020.3.2 ?
