Must press right click before pressing alt to activate constrained orbit

Hi there, on certain browsers/operating systems, you have to press right click before you can press alt in order to use constrained orbit. This occurs on all machines I have tested it on, except for one windows laptop, where I am able to press alt before pressing right click. This is very annoying, as people tend to press alt before clicking. On all of these machines, I have made sure the "show menu when alt is pressed" setting in the respective browser is off. A better alternative to fixing this bug (in my opinion), would to be to add a toggle in your user settings if you prefer constrained orbit or free orbit, and set that to right click.
