In Hyperwave Virtual Folders, context-sensitive menus (or pop-up menus) appear when you click with your right mouse button on an object. If document classes have been declared on the server, the pop-up menu will contain certain items that are dynamically generated, according to what was programmed in the document class.
THE NEW MENU ITEM
The main item that appears on the pop-up menu is the item New. Under New, all possible insertables for Document Classes will be listed. In other words, when you right-click on a document on the server where the document class AddressBookEntry has been declared, the choices under New will include AddressBookEntry. See Figure 77.
Document classes have methods declared for them, where the user may be required to input parameters. These methods might allow the user to search the documents, etc. These methods will be listed on the pop-up menu along with standard methods such as Copy, Paste, etc. If the methods require the user to input parameters, clicking on them will open a dialog box. For example, if you click with your right mouse button on an instance of the document class AddressBookEntry, the method Send and Email will appear on the pop-up menu. See Figure 78.
The elements that can be inserted according to the declaration of the document class, and the methods associated with the class will also appear in the File menu in the Windows Explorer menu bar. Again, these items are dynamically generated, depending on how the document class was programmed.
