Yes, shortcut menus are context-sensitive, meaning they change based on the item or area that is currently selected or active. When you right-click on an object, the shortcut menu will display options relevant to that specific context, providing users with actions that are pertinent to their current task or selection.

To display a context menu, you typically start by detecting a right-click event (or a long press on touch devices) on an element. Once the event is recognized, you prevent the default context menu from appearing and instead display your custom context menu at the cursor's location. This can be achieved using JavaScript to manipulate the DOM and CSS to style the menu. Finally, you should ensure the menu closes when the user clicks outside of it or selects an option.
When you right-click, you will get a sub-menu appropriate for the context on which you clicked.
