Right-click menus

The right-click menus in the application are context-dependent. The options displayed depend on which object, component or part of the user interface you right-click on.

The right-click menus provide quick access to functions relevant to the selected object or task, for example to manage attributes, relationships, map presentation or other specialized functions.

In some situations, a mini toolbar is also displayed above the right-click menu. It contains shortcuts to commonly used commands and provides quick access to the most frequently used functions.

Structure of the menu

The right-click menu is usually divided into the following sections:

Attributes - functions for viewing and managing the object's attributes.

Map view - functions to display the object in the map and control how it is presented.

Object/Component - functions related to the selected object or component.

Relations - functions to view and manage the object's relationships and connections.

Tools - advanced tool functions.

Modules - functions associated with installed modules.

 

The sections displayed depend on the object selected and the function used.
