Markup context menus enable you to change the attributes of selected markups; for example, you can change the background color of all linear dimension labels to differentiate them from the radial dimension labels in a particular drawing.

While each type of measurement will have a unique menu, the context menus contain the same basic commands, such as Copy, Delete, and Properties. 

A context menu can be accessed by either clicking on the markup name in the Markups pane or right-clicking the markup itself.
