A word about the sketch right mouse button menu: The SOLIDWORKS

shortcut menu can be customized to include the commands we use more

click in the double down arrow at the bottom of the menu to reveal the hidden

commands, and select "Customize Menu" to reveal a checkbox next to each menu

item. The checked commands will be displayed immediately; the unchecked

commands will be revealed after pressing the double down arrow at the bottom.
