SMS makes use of a number of menus. Standard menus are: ''File, Edit, Display, Web, Window,'' and ''Help'' menus along with standard right-click menus in the project explorer.
Many commands in SMS are accessed through pull down menus located in the menu bar. Each menu can be accessed either with the mouse or by pressing the ''ALT'' key and the corresponding letter underlined in the menu title. Once a menu is visible the individual commands can be selected with the mouse or by again pressing the corresponding letter underlined in the menu command.
==File Menu==
The ''File'' menu is one of the standard menus available regardless of the current module and model. See [[SMS:File Menu|File Menu]] for more information.


==Edit Menu==
The menus available at any time are dependent on the active module and current numerical model. The first three menus, [[SMS:SMS Menus|File]], [[SMS:SMS Menus|Edit]], and [[SMS:SMS Menus|Display]], are always available. The remaining menus change with the module and the model. This is to partition the available commands into usable groups and avoid unnecessary complexity.
The ''Edit'' menu is one of the standard menus and is available in all of the modules. The commands in the ''Edit'' menu are used to select objects, delete objects, and set basic object and material attributes. See [[SMS:Edit Menu|Edit Menu]] for more information.


==Display Menu==
==Standard Menus==
The ''Display'' menu is the third standard menu available in all modules. The commands in the ''Display'' menu are used to control what entities are displayed and the attributes of those entities. See the article [[SMS:Display Menu|Display Menu]].

Many commands in SMS are accessed through pull down menus located in the menu bar. Each menu can be accessed either with the mouse or by pressing the ALT key and the corresponding letter underlined in the menu title. Once a menu is visible the individual commands can be selected with the mouse or by again pressing the corresponding letter underlined in the menu command.

The menus available at any time are dependent on the active module and current numerical model. The first three menus, File, Edit, and Display, are always available. The remaining menus change with the module and the model. This is to partition the available commands into usable groups and avoid unnecessary complexity.

Standard Menus

Module Specific Menus

Model Specific Menus

Right-Click Menus

Many commands in SMS are accessed through mouse right-click menus. The mouse right-click menu available at any time is dependent on the active module, current numerical model, active tool, and where the right-click is performed.

Standard Right-Click Menus

Module / Model Specific Right-Click Menus

Module and model specific right-click menus are documented for each individual tool. See the Dynamic Tools Article for more information.
