Context Menu

 

When working in the LV, some menus, commands and shortcuts can be accessed via the context menu (figure 3). To do this, right-click on the LV and select the option to use from the drop-down context menu. This menu works with the trigger mechanism, which means that different options may be available depending on the area, object or material clicked on in the LV.
