View pane (note selected): pop-up menu

This menu is shown when right-clicking in the view pane of Map, Outline, Chart or Treemap views with at least one item selected; Attribute Browser and Treemap views have differing pop-up menus. Items may be greyed out according to context and some items vary by view type:

  • Move To First. In Map views this moves the current note in front of all other notes (i.e. first by outline order).
  • Move Note Up. In Outline views this moves the current note up one place (at sibling level).
  • Move Note Down. In Outline views this moves the current note down one place (at sibling level).
  • Move To Last. In Map views this moves the current note behind all other notes (i.e. last by outline order).
  • Rename. Places selected item's title in Edit-in-Place mode.
  • Create Note. Create a new note, as next sibling to the current selection.
  • Create Agent. Create a new agent, as next sibling to the current selection.
  • Create Separator. (Outline only) / Create Adornment (Map only). View dependent:
    • Outline view: adds a new note as next sibling with the 'separator' option pre-ticked. If more than one note is selected, the separator is placed after the first item in the selection (by outline order).
    • Map View: adds an adornment. The adornment is created so as to enclose the currently selected note. If more than one note is selected, the adornment surround the top left note in the selection.
