Menus, Dialog Boxes and Tool Buttons

This section provides you with an overview of elements frequently used in Pinnacle Liquid.

Shortcut Menus

In developing Pinnacle Liquid’s visual design, there was one overrid-

ing concern: keep it simple and easy to use. This was also the reason

for eliminating the traditional menu bar. Functions are called either

from a shortcut menu or by means of a tool button.

Alongside Tools, Shortcut Menus are the principal operating elements

in Pinnacle Liquid. All useful functions are grouped in these shortcut

menus specific to objects and certain areas. And that’s where you

should look first.

Calling Shortcut Menus

1 Right-click an object or an area to open the corresponding

shortcut menu.

2 Left-click an entry in the shortcut menu to call this function.
