Shortcut menus are a list of commands that relate to an object, project element, or specific area on the Wwise interface. You can access these menus by right-clicking an object or specific area of the interface.
For example, when you right-click an object in the Project Explorer, a shortcut menu appears with several commands. You can use these commands to cut, copy, or paste an object, create a parent or child object, create Events associated with a specific object, convert a sound object, and so on.

Although these menus are contextual, there are several commands that appear across menus. Along with the standard Windows commands, such as Cut, Copy, Paste, Delete, and Rename, you can access many of the following Wwise-specific commands by right-clicking different objects or areas of the interface:
-
Edit: To load the selected object or project element into its respective editor.
-
Find in Project Explorer: To highlight the selected object or project element in the Project Explorer. When using this command, you must also specify the Sync Group, if any, to which the Project Explorer belongs.

-
Show in Schematic View: To display the selected object(s) in the Schematic View.

Find All References: To display a list of project elements that contain direct references to the current object. The list of direct references is displayed in the Reference view.
