Overview of the Menu Tree
Previous Topic  Next Topic 

The menu tree is where all user data is created, loaded and saved. Right clicking on any existing entity will bring up a series of options such as new, load, save, export etc. The right click menu adapts to the selection clicked.


The user can click on one or more entities which will also change the right click options available. For example right clicking on a list of materials (selected with the shift key) and selecting the duplicate function will duplicate these materials. Right clicking on the Materials entry will duplicate the entire set of materials.


This functionality is common throughout the CDS3.0 menu environment allowing rapid creation of materials, laminas, laminates etc.


You can select multiple items in a row by holding the shift key or discrete items with the control key pressed when selecting items. Note that you can only multi select items on the same level and sub menu.
