screen shot showing shortcut menu

Hi,

When editing a form, and after right clicking on a control, you get a nice
shortcut menu, as shown in the attachment.

But I think it should read "Control properties...", and  "Form properties..."
rather than just "Control..." or "Form..." which are sort of ambiguous.  

There is space for this extra word (properties), and I think it would make it
more to the point of what you are getting with these menu selections.

Furthermore, when I first tried to use Base, I looked all over for any
properties dialogs and it took me way too long to find them.  Then even once I
found them by trying everything, I didn't find it easy to find them again.  I
kept looking for the word properties.

I now know that I can also double click on a control to get it's properties,
but at first that is not obvious either.  So in addition, I think "Control
properties..." should be bold face to suggest that it is the default, like when
you double click on this menu.  And also, I think it should be first in the
list, before cut and paste, ...given that it's the default.

Thanks.
