Walkthrough

The pull request refactors the context menu component in ContextMenu.vue. It removes the x and y properties from the ctxPos data structure, retaining only the visible state. A new computed property, contextMenuStyle, dynamically adjusts the menu's presentation. The component now includes a new showContextMenu method while simplifying the hideContextMenu method. Additionally, the menuItemClicked method has been refactored to accept an index for selecting an action from an array, streamlining event handling.

Poem

I'm a rabbit, hopping with glee,
In code gardens, what a sight to see!
Context menus now dance so light,
With clean actions, oh what a delight.
Bugs go bye, as my whiskers twitch,
Celebrating changes with a playful glitch!
