Object

In the pop-up menu associated with an object, provide access to the actions the user will need to perform with the task.

Make the default action of an object be the action the user is most likely to want to perform with the task.

Allow a user to change the default action of an object.

Make a default action open a window that displays a view of the object (showing its contents), present an accessible user interface, or both. This is not required if the object is best presented in a nonvisual medium (for example, it contains audio and its default action is Play).

When the user opens a view of an object, do not remove the icon from which the view was opened.
