Expansion and menu options

Show submenus on context menus

Organizes the shortcut menu commands by arranging them into cascading menus for Actions and Relations

Always update Properties window to reflect selected item

Displays the details for an object on the Properties window when you right-click that object.

If this option is not selected, the Properties window is populated when you click an object.

Turn off look ahead on filtered and multi-path relationship (edge) expansion

Turns off the Look Ahead feature on shortcut menu options that expand relationships traversing multiple objects (using edges).

This option applies only when the Look Ahead feature is enabled. Selecting this option can improve performance for shortcut menus because the Desktop Client queries the database for less information when you right-click an object.
