button changes to
V
and all other buttons on the
same row are disabled. Pressing

In addition, you can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Enter , instead of the button.
Finally, an important feature of the programming editor is the context menu called by
pressing the right mouse button when the mouse cursor is over the programming editor
(Fig. 10). Essentially, this gives us access to inserting all available commands at the current
position of the cursor in the programming editor. This functionality is quite similar to the
quick command menu, with a few dierences. The only major dierence is the possibility
to insert the commands MoveJoints, MoveLin, and MovePose with the current joint set or
end-eector pose.
To cancel the context menu without inserting a command, press Esc or click away.
