Abstract: The disclosed method for manipulating a computer aided design (CAD) model includes the computer-implemented steps of a user determining one or more entities in a CAD model with a cursor, determining a set of adequate user action(s) to execute on the entities and providing a suggestion menu which contains the set of adequate user actions, partly determined by previously executed user actions. A second method for manipulating a CAD model includes the computer-implemented steps of a user determining one or more entities with a cursor, determining a set of adequate user actions to execute on the entities and providing a suggestion menu which contains the set of adequate user actions, partly determined by a geometric analysis on any of the entities in an area within a predetermined proximity of the cursor. A computer program product and server for manipulating a CAD model are also described.

Abstract: In a first aspect, the present invention relates a method for manipulating a computer aided design (CAD) model, comprising the computer-implemented steps of a user determining one or more entities in a CAD model by means of a cursor, determining a set of one or more adequate user actions to execute on said one or more entities and providing a suggestion menu, comprising said set of one or more adequate user actions, whereby said set of one or more adequate user actions is partly determined by previously executed user actions by said user, as described in claim 1.
