How to: Modify a Department Menu in a MenuSuite

You modify an existing MenuSuite by designing it in Navigation Pane Designer. You can modify the shortcut menus, which typically represent a department area. You can modify the department menu either directly from the shortcut menu or in the Menu Properties window. This procedure describes how to modify a department menu in a MenuSuite.

  2. In Object Designer, choose MenuSuite.

  3. Choose the MenuSuite that you want to modify, and then choose Design to open Navigation Pane Designer.

  4. In Navigation Pane Designer, select the department you want to modify, and open the shortcut menu. From here, you can make the following modifications:

    • Delete the department menu.

    • Rename the department menu.

    • Move the department menu to a different location.

    • Hide or show the department menu.

    • Disable or enable the department menu.
