Hi all,

I understand there is the possibility to endow various elements in a bokeh app with a context menu activated by right-clicking on an element, which, I suppose, can be used to trigger some specific actions. This seems very interesting, although studying the docs I couldn’t understand how to make it work nor there is any example of its usage. Can anyone give me a hint?

@nlosacco I am pretty sure that context menu support is still considered fairly new and experimental. I’d actually suggest opening a [Github Development Discussion](https://github.com/bokeh/bokeh/discussions) about their use – if they are fully baked at this point then we need to get more docs support for them,
