Main label or alias
You can also insert a menu with the Pn= syntax. The following macro inserts
a menu after the P5 menu.
If you use this method to insert a menu, remember that you cannot rely on
its being inserted at the P6 menu location as you might expect. There are two
reasons that this may not be the case.
■ If the current menu bar has only three menus, inserting a menu after menu
P5 results in the new menu's location being P4.
■ If the user inserts or removes a customization file with the CUILOAD
command or when another application inserts or removes customization
files, menu numbering can get out of sync.
This is the syntax for removing a menu:
Gcustomizationgroup.menuname=-
The following shows how to remove the menu NEW3 that is a member of the
MyMenu group.
$Gmymenu.new3=-"
As you might expect, the preceding format is preferable to the Pn= format
because it removes only the specified menu. The following shows how to
remove the menu at the P4 location (whatever it is).
$P4=-
Control Toolbars Across Partial CUIx Files
To control toolbars across partial CUIx files, use the following syntax at the
Enter toolbar name or [ALL]: prompt of the -TOOLBAR command.
menugroup.subsection-name
This syntax accesses the toolbar identified by menugroup.menuname and allows
you to use the full spectrum of -TOOLBAR command options on that toolbar.
If the menu group is left out of any of these commands and functions, the
program defaults to the main CUIx file.
You should be aware of the following:
■ Image tile menus cannot be swapped from external customization files.
