Subject:Speed menu vs shortcut menu From:Kirsty -dot- Taylor -at- mincom -dot- com To:techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com Date:Wed, 18 Feb 2004 13:52:30 +1000
Hi all,
I've just come across a term in some training that I'm not familiar with
and want to check if it's one that's common in the industry (or in the
industry in the US). The training's in Business Objects and they refer to 'speed menus'. This is for the menu you get when you right click on a
screen. Normally I'd call that a shortcut menu.
Obviously, this can depend on where you are and what industry you're in
and I'm probably going to get some rather varied responses ... but I'm
interested to know if people think there's a difference between the two
terms or if speed menu is now replacing shortcut menu?
Thanks,
Kirsty
