How to insert/edit/delete a standard menu item

To insert a new menu item:

• Select a menu item

• Use the Insert | Above Current..., Insert | Below Current... menu options or the toolbar buttons, to insert a new menu item before or after the current selection

• In the “Standard Item Editor” dialog type a caption for your menu item

• Use the Command drop down list to associate your menu item with an Eikon command variable—for identification in Eikon code.

  Note that the drop down list holds standard commands. To support your own custom command, type a new command name into the box.

• Associate your command with one of the HotKey options—None, Plain, Ctrl, Shift+Ctrl. This is set to None by default.

• Select Enable to enable the menu item. This is checked by default—if this is unchecked, the resultant menu item will appear dimmed.

• Select Append Separator to append a separator below this menu item. This is unchecked by default.

• Press OK to create the menu item.

To edit an application's menu item use Edit | Current or the toolbar button to activate the “Standard Item Editor” dialog.

To delete an application's menu item select Edit | Delete Current... or the delete toolbar button.
