Context menu shortcut key change Linux mint 17 Cinnamon

Mint 17 Cinnamon assign the context menu functionality (aka right mouse click) to a key. The default key shortcut is Shift + F10, but I would like to change that to ANY key (namely to Print button). I tried dconf editor also gconf editor but I can't find it. At the "Keyboard" in "System Settings" there is no way to change this. What i would like is equivalent to Mint KDE under Regional & Accessibility Keyboard Shortcuts entry for Popup Menu Context.

To allow you to change the Menu key to whatever you want, you have to change one setting under All Settings -> Keyboard layouts and your particular keyboard layout (mine's English (US)). After you highlight it, and click on 'Options', go to 'Switch to another layout', and check 'Menu'.

After I did this, I can then use the 'Menu' key as a keybinding for my particular Custom Shortcut in All Settings -> Keyboard shortcuts.
