Use context menus
No matter where you are in the Graphics editor, you can open a menu by clicking the right
mouse button. This is often quicker than moving the mouse up to the menus at the top of
the screen.
The items on the menu depend on the cursor’s location. For example, when you right-
click an object, the menu contains the most common actions you can perform on that
object.
When you right-
click an object...
...a menu opens.
It contains menu
items for working
with the selected
object.
