Using context menus

In addition to the menus at the top of your screen, context menus display commands relevant to the active tool, selection, or palette.

  • To display a context menu, position the pointer over the image or over an item in a palette and right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac OS).
  • To try this out, select the eyedropper tool (), move it over the image window, and right-click or Control-click. A context menu appears, showing options you can set for the eyedropper tool, including a palette menu with additional options. You can also access these options by clicking the Brush option arrow in the tool options bar.
