Context Menu Commands
The context menu appears when you right-click elements in the drawing area in the preselection mode. Depending on the current context and the selected object, the commands on the context menu change.
If you do not preselect any elements, the context menu displays the following commands (also present in the Viewing group on the View tab):
• Redraw
• Fit
• New
• Last
• Zoom
• Pan
• Center
• Store
• Recall
The context menu displays element-specific commands if you preselect any elements. The following table lists the commands on the context menu for different element-types and preselection modes:

• The context menu includes element-specific commands according to your selection. For example, if you preselect a single text and a single part, the context menu displays the part-specific commands, text-specific commands, the element transformation commands, and Delete.
• For other element types (for example, pictures and OLE objects), the context menu only displays the element transformation commands and Delete.
