The Scatter Point menu becomes available when the 2D Scatter Point module is active. The menu has one submenu: the Interpolation submenu. Below are the commands available in this menu.

New Scatter Point Set
Creates a new dataset.
Lock All Scatter Points
Prevents adjusting the location of scatter points.
Scatter Point Settings...
Opens the Scatter sets tab under the Preferences dialog.
Find Point...
Locates a point based on ID number or text label.
Interpolation >
Interpolation Options...
Sets the interpolation options used when interpolating to other objects. The interpolation options are saved with the project.
Interpolate → Active TIN
Interpolate the active dataset on the active scatter set to the active TIN.
Interpolate → 2D Mesh
Interpolate the active dataset on the active scatter set to the 2D mesh.
Interpolate → 2D Grid
Interpolate the active dataset on the active scatter set to the 2D grid.
Interpolate → 3D Mesh
Interpolate the active dataset on the active scatter set to the 3D mesh.
Interpolate → 3D Grid
Interpolate the active dataset on the active scatter set to the 3D grid.
Interpolate → MODFLOW Layers
Interpolate the active dataset on the active scatter set to the MODFLOW Layers.
Interpolate → UGrid
Interpolate the active dataset on the active scatter set to the active UGrid.
Gaussian Simulation Options...
Gaussian Sequential Simulation (GSS) is a form of kriging that can only be used for 2D interpolation and only works when interpolating to 3D cell-centered grids.
Run Gaussian Simulation
Launches the Gaussian simulation run.
Jackknifing...
Interpolates the active scatter point set to itself using the currently selected interpolation scheme.
Summary
Brings up Summary Dialog.
Bounding 2D Grid...
Creates a 2D grid that bounds or contains all of the scatter points in the active set.
Bounding 3D Grid...
Creates a 3D grid that bounds or contains all of the scatter points in the active set.
Scatter Points → TINS
Creates a set of TIN vertices. These vertices are automatically triangulated to form a TIN.
Scatter Points → Mesh Nodes
Creates nodes from the scatter points for a 2D mesh.
Scatter Points → Obs. Pts.
Creates observation points from the active dataset. A coverage that is set for observation data must already exist.
Scatter Points → 3D Scatter Points
Creates a 3D scatter point set from the 2D scatter points. All of the datasets are copied to the 3D scatter points. The Z (elevation) of the 3D scatter points is set to the Z of the 2D scatter points at the time of conversion.
Merge Scatter Point Sets
Merges Scatter Point sets.

Selected Scatter Point Right-Click Menu

In addition to the standard right-click menu commands, the following commands are available:

Check All
"Activates" selected scatter points by changing the active flags in the active dataset, or in all datasets. A dialog asks whether to change only the active dataset or all datasets. If the datasets are transient, all time steps will be changed.
Uncheck All
Same as the Check All command but in reverse. Inactive points can be selected only if they are displayed via the option in the Display Options dialog.

Scatter Point Set Project Explorer Right-Click Menu

In addition to the standard right-click menu commands, the following commands are available:

Import Dataset
Allows you to import your own values.
Z Values → Dataset
Creates a dataset from the Z locations of the points.
Zoom To Extents
Frames the Graphics Window around the selected objects.
