This section describes the commands in Sketchpad’s menus.

• | The File menu allows you to create, save, and print entire documents.

• | The Edit and Display menus contain commands that alter the appearance, format, or definition of existing objects in your active sketch.

• | The Construct, Transform, Measure, Number, and Graph menus all allow you to define new mathematical content in the active sketch, often by creating new objects related to selected objects.

• | The Window menu (Microsoft Windows and Macintosh OS X only) lets you manage open document windows on your desktop.

• | The Help menu contains links to the Sketchpad Learning Center, to this Reference Center, to the Sketchpad Resource Center, and to the Picture Gallery.

• | The Context menu appears when you right-click (Windows) or Ctrl+click (Macintosh) in the sketch, and presents options relevant to the clicked object, or to the sketch document if the click was in empty space.

• | The Custom Tools menu appears when you press and hold the Custom tool icon at the bottom of the Toolbox.

The Macintosh edition of Sketchpad contains a Sketchpad application menu in addition to the menus listed here. This application menu contains standard commands used by all Mac applications, and isn’t discussed here.
