Popup Menus
Creo Parametric provides shortcut menus that contain frequently used commands appropriate to the currently selected items. You can access a shortcut menu by clicking the right mouse button (RMB) after selecting an item. Shortcut menus are accessible in:
• Graphics window
• Model tree
• Some dialog boxes
• Any area where you can perform an object-action operation by selecting an item and then choosing a command to perform on the selected item.
Creo TOOLKIT provides different procedures to add custom buttons to popup menus, depending on the buttons’ context. To add to the model tree popup menu, use the procedure described in
Adding a Button to the Model Tree Popup Menu. To add a popup menu to a custom dialog box, see the
User Interface: Dialogs section (you cannot modify the popup menus in an existing UI dialog box). To add to a graphics window popup menu, refer to
Adding a Popup Menu to the Graphics Window.
