Tab Menu

The tab menu, which is accessible from each open tab in the App Tab interface, contains shortcuts for various functions related to that specific app item.

Accessing the Menu

To access the menu users can either left or right click on the tab. Double clicking the tab or a previously saved item will open the rename item dialog box.

The menu presented changes based on the type of app content and its state (saved vs unsaved).
