The Virtual Ticket DeveloperDigital Storage Manager client makes use of a context menu in many of its windows. The Context Menu allows you to many tasks that may not be available through standard window buttons and menus.
To access the Context Menu, select an object in Virtual Ticket DeveloperDigital Storage Manager and use the CTRL+Click command or click the Context Menu button displayed in some windows:
This menu is called a context menu because it changes according to the context in which it is opened. This context is determined by the objects that are selected when it is opened. The context is used to determine what commands appear in the menu. In places where a certain command is not allowed, that command will be inactive or will not appear in the menu.
Below is a list of all commands that can appear in the Context Menu. The “->” convention is used to indicate a submenu.
