Be sure to rate this article 5 Stars if you find it helpful!

Context-menus appear when you right-click (or, more correctly, 'alternate-click' for all the Lefties out there) something. Depending on where the right-click occurs, different options are presented.

Options that appear only on a Context Menu are explained below (we will not 're-explain' copy, cut, paste, etc.).

The available options change depending on where the right-click occurs (on a Condition, on a Typical Group, in a blank-space, etc.)
