For example, to support an object-specific shortcut menu for one or more
selected block references, you would create or modify a shortcut menu and
change its properties to those in the following table. The important property
to change is Aliases, which would need to modified to include the alias
OBJECTS_BLOCKREF.

Command Specific Shortcut Menus


Like the CMEDIT menu, the CMCOMMAND menu can contain context-sensitive

are appended to the CMCOMMAND menu when a command is active. The text of
commandname can be any valid AutoCAD LT command, including
custom-defined or third-party commands.
