Customize menus
Hiding
and colorizing menu commands is a way to remove menu clutter and emphasize
commands you frequently use. Note that hiding menu commands simply
removes the menu from view; it doesn’t disable any features. At
any time, you can view hidden commands by selecting the Show All
Menu Items command at the bottom of a menu. You can include customized
menus in workspaces you save.
You can customize the main menu,
context menus, and panel menus. Context menus appear when you right-click
(Windows) or Control-click (Mac OS) an area. Panel menus
appear when you click the icon in the upper right of a panel.
Note: If you select a different workspace, such
as Getting Started, some menu commands may be hidden. To display
all menu commands, choose Essentials or Advanced.
Create a custom menu set- Choose Edit > Menus.
You cannot edit the default menu set.
- Click Save As, type the name of the menu set, and click
OK.
- From the Category menu, choose Application Menus or Context
& Panel Menus to determine which menus are customized.
- Click the arrows to the left of the menu categories to
display subcategories or menu commands. For each command you want
to customize, click the eye icon under Visibility to show or hide
the command; click None under Color to select a color from the menu.
- Click Save, and then click OK.
Select a custom menu set- Choose Edit > Menus.
- Choose the menu set from the Set menu, and then click
OK.
Edit or delete a custom menu set- Choose Edit > Menus.
- Choose the menu set from the Set menu, and then do one
of the following:
To edit a menu set, change the visibility
or color of menu commands, click Save, and then click OK.
To delete a menu set, click Delete and then click
Yes. If you’ve modified the menu set without saving it, you’re prompted
to save the current menu set. Click Yes to save the menu set, or
click No to discard changes.
Show hidden menu items Choose Show All Menu Items at the bottom
of the menu that includes hidden commands.
 Holding down Ctrl (Windows) or Command
(Mac OS) and clicking a menu name temporarily displays
any menu commands you’ve hidden by customizing menus.
