Object Context Menu

The Object Context menu appears after clicking the right mouse button over an object, or after selecting an object and then pressing Alt+Enter or the special Context Menu key on the Windows keyboard.

A context menu will contain different choices, based on the current circumstances. Only some of the following menu items will appear at any one time.

Follow Link

If an element has a link to a page in the current site, that page is opened in the Page Editor.

Reload Source Image

Reloads the graphics file, which originally had been imported into StudioLine. If available, StudioLine will look for the file in its original location. If the file is not found and if only a single image is currently selected, then the user will be offered to browse for the file.

This function can improve image quality whenever a small section of an image was first cropped and subsequently enlarged. The reload function retrieves the original graphics file and stores the cutout area in the highest resolution permitted by the Image Archive Preferences. In case of Kodak Photo CDs, the most suitable resolution will be loaded.

Reloading may also be used to restore a lost image. Images that somehow were lost inside StudioLine would appear in StudioLine with a special icon instead of the actual picture. The reload function offers a way to address this situation.

Image Viewer / Slide Show

Allows manual or automatic browsing (slide-show) through currently selected images.

Selection

Displays the list of all selected objects, if more than one. The left mouse-button can be used to manipulate the elements of the list.

The selection list can be useful to pick specific objects out of a stack of layered objects.

Hide Selector Bands

Toggles the display of selector bands around selected objects.

Selector bands will reappear, if any object is being selected.

Open in Image Archive

Opens the original image in Image Archive mode.
