Hi,

I think, that the term should be the same as in the help. There it is "context menu".

kind regards
Regina

While reviewing "Getting Started with Base", I noticed the use of the
term "pop-up" menu. I'm thinking that OOo help has referred to this as
a "context" menu. The reason being that the menu which appears when
you right click depends upon what you click. Hence, the appearing menu
depends upon the context involved in the right click. Perhaps I am
being picky, but I would like to know which of these is the preferred
term so I can standardize the wording in this chapter (and other
chapters as well).
I'm presently a little over half-way finished with my review. Updating
this chapter for 3.2 has required more changes and a few additions
than I had expected.

You could touch both bases by referring to it as a "context pop-up
menu." Then most everybody should be satisfied. If that works, that
expanded term could be added to the style guide.
