How do I pull up settings within an application?

Pulling up settings within an application

I recently changed phones to a Galaxy S6 Note from a Galaxy S4.
On the S4 when I was in an application, I was able to press the button to the left of the home button and pull up settings or a list of options. I have not been able to pull that those same functions with the Note. Is there a shortcut or even a not so shortcut to get to the same settings. I need this to manage my work applications (passwords, signatures for emails, etc.)

Welcome to Android Central! For phones that don't have a hardware menu button, the apps should know to display an onscreen menu button. Look for a button that looks like 3 vertical dots or 3 horizontal lines in one of the corners of the screen.
