Using context menus


    In addition to the menus that appear at the top of your screen, Adobe Illustrator contains a number of context-sensitive menus that relate to the document or the selection. You can use context menus as a quick way to choose commonly used commands.

To display context menus:

  1. Position the pointer over the document or an object in the document.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • In Windows, click with the right mouse button.
    • In Mac OS, press Control and hold down the mouse button.
