Menu Reference

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, and Graph menus all allow you to define new mathematical content in the active sketch, most often by expressing new objects’ relationships to existing, selected objects.
The Window menu (Microsoft Windows and Macintosh OS X only) lets you manage open document windows on your desktop.
The Help menu allows you to consult an electronic version of this Reference Manual for help with specific Sketchpad commands and tools.
The Context menu appears when you right-click (Windows) or Ctrl+click (Macintosh) in the sketch, and presents options relevant to the object that was clicked.

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