Adds or removes commands and macros from menus or the main menu bar. You can add a command to an existing menu or build a custom menu with the commands that you want.

Categories

Sets the category from which you want to select a command or macro to add to the menu or main menu bar. When you select the category for a group of commands in this box, a list of commands specific to the selected category is displayed in the Commands box. When you select Custom Commands in the Categories box, the Commands box becomes the Macros box and displays a list of available macros. Also, a Browse button displays that you can use to open the Select Macro Directory dialog box.

Commands

Specifies the command or macro that you want to add to the menu. If you select Custom Commands in the Categories list, the Commands box becomes the Macros box and displays a list of macros that are available in the current active folder. You can use Browse to change the active folder. When you change the active folder, the macro list in the Macros box updates to display a list of macros in the specified location.

Preview

Lists the menus. Double-click on a menu name to see all the commands on a menu. When you click Add Command, Add Menu, Place into selected menu, or Remove, the changes show up on this list. This list also changes to allow you type in a name for the new menu that you want to add.

Place into selected menu

Places a command or macro that you selected in the Commands box on the menu that you selected in the Preview box. If you do not set this option, then the macros or commands that you are adding are placed before or after the command or menu that you selected in the Preview box.

Reset All

Restores all menus and the main menu bar to the original settings.

Add Command

Places a command or macro on a menu or the main menu bar. This button is available only when you select a command or macro in the Commands box.

Add Menu

Places a menu on an existing menu or the main menu bar. When you add a menu with this option, you can add commands to the new menu later. If you add a menu to an existing menu, this creates a cascading menu. After you click this button, you can type the name that you want in the Preview box and then click away from the name to enter it.

Remove

Removes the command or menu that you selected in the Preview box.

Description

Displays a description or result of the options that you selected before you apply them to a menu.

Browse

Opens the Select Macro Directory dialog box where you can navigate to the directory containing the macro you want to add to a SmartSketch menu. Browse appears only when you click Custom Commands in the Categories box.
