Paremklõps

Paremklõps, often referred to as the "right-click" in English, is a fundamental interaction method in graphical user interfaces (GUIs). It is performed by pressing and releasing the secondary button on a computer mouse, typically the button located on the right side. This action is distinct from the primary "left-click" which is used for selecting, activating, or opening items.

The primary function of a paremklõps is to invoke a context menu. This menu is dynamic and displays a list of options relevant to the specific item or area on which the click was performed. For instance, paremklõps on a file might reveal options like "Open," "Copy," "Paste," "Delete," and "Rename." Similarly, paremklõps on a web page might offer choices such as "Back," "Reload," "Save As," or "Inspect Element."

The concept of a context menu, triggered by a secondary click, provides users with efficient access to commonly used commands without needing to navigate through menus or toolbars. This feature is a cornerstone of usability in most modern operating systems and applications, enhancing productivity and simplifying complex tasks. The exact options available in a context menu can vary significantly depending on the operating system, the application in use, and the specific object being interacted with.
