Quick-Access PoP-Up Menus

Some ECM windows, including the Main window, have menu short cuts that

eliminate the need to reposition the mouse pointer to select an option.

To access a menu short cut, press the right mouse button within the window’s

main dialog area. This displays a popup menu listing some commonly used

options available from that window’s menu bar.

All the Main window menu options are described in the following sections.

Pull-Down Menus & Buttons

The ECM Main window contains ﬁve pull-down menus: File, View, Options,

Setup, and Help. You can access the options in these menus by clicking on the

option or using the accelerator key shortcuts — holding down the Alt key and

pressing the letter key corresponding to the underlined letter in the menu

name in the menu bar to open the desired menu, and then (with the Alt key

released) pressing the letter key key corresponding to the applicable

underlined letter in the option label to select a desired option.

ECM also has buttons for some of the options in the Options menu. To identify

any button in the tool bar, hold the mouse pointer over the button for a second.

A yellow label will appear below the button, identifying it.

File & View Menus

Figure 2-15 shows the File and View menus of the ECM Main window as they

would appear if they could both be active at the same time. Table 2-5 describes

the functions of the File menu options. Table 2-6 describes the functions of the

View menu options.

NOTE

Once you select the window view in the ECM Main window, this view applies

to both the ECM Main and Conﬁgurations windows. However, if you change

the view in the Conﬁgurations window, that view becomes independent of the

view in the Main window. In either window, you can select the view.
