Configuring Context Menu & Hotkeys
Configuring context menu
The program allows creating user's menu, with which you can perform miscellaneous actions over network objects.
To add new menu item: right-click on the network map area and then select the menu item Actions | <Add>. This opens a new window (Fig. 1), in which you can set:
- Menu title
- Application
- Command line parameters
- Types of map objects for which this menu item can be applied
Fig. 1: The Adding new action window.
Specify the %N key for representing device's address. The program will replace the key with selected object's network address. Specify the %C key for representing device's comment. Thus, you can insert passwords (which you can store in the comment field) or other data into the parameter string when running external application.
The list of the caption field has a number of predefined templates (such as HTTP, FTP, etc), which you can use as you wish.
Once you have created a new menu item, it appears on the selected object's context menu in the section Actions. You can modify, add or delete menu item using the settings (Fig. 2).

You can sort the context menu items by clicking the buttons with arrows. If you select the option Perform the first operation from the list on double click on the upper list item will be a default action which can be applied to map objects by double-clicking on the necessary object.
Use the "-" symbol (dash) as a header for adding the separator line to the menu.
Configuring hotkeys
In this section, you can configure hotkeys, which you can use for quick accessing the program's functions when the program is minimized to system tray.
All keys are used in combination with the WIN key (the one with the Windows logo).
To configure hotkey: select its function from the Operations list, then place the mouse pointer on the Key field and press the key, which you would like to use for the hotkey combination.
All changes take affect when the new settings are applied.
