Pop-up Menus Overview

Many commonly used Xara LX functions can be found on the pop-up menu which appears when you right-click on a document. Note that you can configure the mouse's right-button click to do other things if you prefer. See Mouse Options for more details. Pop-up menus are also available in other areas of Xara LX. When you right-click on an object the pop-up menu offers options for that object and options about objects in general. Note that right-clicking on an unselected object selects it as well as popping up a menu.
