Shortcut Menus

In SolidWorks, you activate context-sensitive (shortcut) menus when you click the right mouse button.

Shortcut menus are available in the graphics area, for drawing views or drawing sheets, and for items in the FeatureManager design tree, for example.

NOTE: When you select items in the graphics area or FeatureManager design tree, context toolbars appear and provide access to frequently performed actions for that context.
