Access element menus

Element menus

Elementor Editor uses context menus to help creators create webpages faster and more efficiently. Context menus change their content according to where they are located. For example, the context menu of a container is different from the context menu of a widget. 

Context menus are accessed by right-clicking the corner of a widget or the tab of a container or section.
