# Liquid glass context menu: spec and references

Source: https://meniscus.site/components/context-menu · Updated 2026-09-27

Menu at the pointer. Layer: overlay.

Also called: right click menu.

| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Material | frost |
| Profile | squircle |
| Geometry | as menu; opens at the pointer offset 4 px |
| Bezel (px) | 18 |
| Displacement (px) | 35–45 |
| Blur (px) | 10–16 |

## Anatomy

- glass panel
- grouped flat rows
- separators

## States

- open
- row highlight

## Rules

- Same material as menu — it is a menu, not a new component.
- Glass, not a dark opaque panel: current platforms render context menus as frost glass over the dimmed content.
