1 Title ======= Enhancement Request: Avoid showing "Select" sub-menu when region is already selected in context-menu-region 2 Description ============= When context-menu-mode is enabled and the context menu is raised, a "Select" sub-menu is offered by the hook function context-menu-region. As of GNU Emacs 30.2, the "Select" sub-menu is always shown. An enhancement request is to change the condition of showing the "Select" sub-menu in the context menu only when no text is selected. The presumption is that when text is selected, the user-intended extent of the region is defined so no need to change the extent is necessary. This helps keep the context-menu selection small and focused on context. 3 Environment ============= GNU Emacs 30.2 (build 2, aarch64-apple-darwin24.6.0, NS appkit-2575.70 Version 15.7.7 (Build 24G720)) of 2026-06-30 4 Steps to Reproduce ==================== 1. Launch Emacs with context-menu-mode enabled. 2. In a writeable window, type in text and select it. 3. Raise the context menu over the selected text. 5 Expected Result ================= No "Select" sub-menu is displayed in the context menu. 6 Actual Result =============== A "Select" sub-menu is displayed in the context menu. — Charles Y.
