How to customize a help menu?

I'd like to add some custom help items to an application's help menu. I have the custom help file (a reference for HTML entities). I just need to know how to add it to the help menu so that I can open it in a specific application.
Any ideas?

You cannot change an application's menus unless it's been designed to allow that by the developer. Now there are third-party utilities that can add a system-wide menubar item to which you can add documents and/or applications for quick launching. Such utilities include Classic Menu, Sunny Menu, XMenu, MoofMenu, Claw, etc. There also are utilities such as Typinator, TextExpander, Automaton, etc. that can be used to enter items into a document based on keyboard shortcuts or menu selection. Look for them and others at CNet Downloads or MacUpdate.

  • Help menu in Swing

    Hi all,
    can anyone tell me how to create an Help menu in Swing??
    i mean, like the Help menu options that you can see in Windows.
    I mean, again, by clicking on the Help option, you should see Contents etc..
    is it possible to do it in Swing? if so, how?
    thanx and regards
    marco

    There's no class called "HelpMenu" or anything like that, you'd have to create your own using tabbed panes and JTrees.

  • Issue in customized help menu

    Hi,
    There is a requirement to customize the help menu in standard SAP menu bar. For that I have created a function code in se41 in MENUSYST and status MEN and taken function code type as 'T'.  Also created a Z transaction code with a program to call a intranet  URL attached to it.
    Now the issue is whenever I click on the option in the help menu from some other screen (se38 or se11) apart from start screen S000. The browser starts and the web page is opened but the screen always resets to SAP intial screen(S000).
    Can anyone suggest whether the function code type needs to be changed or is there any other issue.
    Regards,
    Aparna

    As explained in the field help, T corresponds to LEAVE TO TRANSACTION, so what happens is normal (note: you can see that menu item System | Utilities | Authorization check behaves as yours).
    As I could see in the forum, what you need to do is to choose function type H (help), and modify standard function module HELP_START.

  • How do I remove the menu button? The Customize option doesn't seem to work for that.

    How do I remove the menu button? [That IChing looking three line icon on the toolbar.]
    The toolbar Customize option doesn't seem to work, and it seems a waste to have a button that duplicates the menus. I'd like to swap it out for the NoScript icon.

    iPods (except for iPod touch) are not linked to any iTunes "account."  They are associated with your iTunes library. The account in iTunes is your Apple ID, and that is used to buy and download content from the iTunes Store.  It is not required to use an iPod.
    The 1st (and 2nd) gen shuffle can only be used with one iTunes library at a time.  When you connect it, iTunes should prompt you to start using it with your iTunes library, and warn that the shuffle's existing content will be erased.  Have iTunes erase the shuffle, and it will be associated with your iTunes library going forward.  You can then add content to your shuffle.
    The need for the previous owner's Apple ID and password should only come up if you are trying to transfer existing content from the shuffle to your iTunes library, AND the previous owner had content purchased from the iTunes Store.  Just cancel out of that step, if iTunes asks.

  • How do I publish to a folder? Help Menu doesn't say.

    I have checked the iWeb Help menu, the "Welcome to iWeb" pages that I printed out, and the "iWeb 1.1 Help" that I printed out. No source answers the question that I have about publishing to a folder.
    When I go to the iWeb File > Publish to a folder, I am told to write the URL of that folder. But, how do I get a folder with a URL? In the first place, I thought that publishing to a folder meant, a folder on my Desktop, away from the Internet, but if a URL is required, obviously I thought wrong.
    — Lorna in Southern California

    Hi Lorna,
    All you have to do is to navigate to your desired folder in the file dialog window, like any other Mac application. You can even click on the "New Folder" button in the bottom of the window to create a new folder.
    Don't worry about the URL text field. This field only needs to be filled out if you are going to be uploading your website to a 3rd party web host and is only important so that the RSS feeds and/or podcast URLs are generated correctly for 3rd party hosting purposes. You are going to be publishing your pages to .Mac, so all of this will be taken care of for you.
    All you are using the "Publish to Folder" option for is to keep a local copy of your website so that you can preview it before putting it up on .Mac. Just select the folder where you want iWeb to save your website files and click OK. Again, just ignore the URL field.

  • How do I change Text Colour in a Spreadsheet?  The Help menu doesn't help.

    Simple question whcih i cannot find the simple answer to:  How do I change Text Colour in a Spreadsheet?  The Help menu doesn't help.

    Hi Lecia,
    You have several choices.
    Use the first set of controls in the Format Bar. One of these is a Color well (red in the image). Select the cell(s) in which you want the text coloured, then click the well to open its Color palette, and choose your colour.
    Use the Text Inspector. Open the inspector, click the Text button (T), and use the tools there (similar to the set in the Format Bar).
    Press command-T to open the Fonts Window. This offers a few more options than are available in the Inspector or the Format bar.
    Regarding "Help": I'd recommend using the Numbers '09 User Guide, which you can download via the Help menu. Easier to search, and easier reading than the individual Help articles. search 'text color' to quickly get to instructions on applying colour to text.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • Can someone tell me how to import c.d's faster.  I've tried all the stuff listed on the help menu.

    Can someone tell me how to import c.d's faster.  I've already tried all the stuff they told me to do on the help menu.  edit, pref., general, import settings, deselect "use error correction when reading audio c.d.s.  It wasn't even selected in the first place.  Wiped off c.d.  Isn't there a way to speed up the importing?  Thanks for any support on this.

    I tried to rip from Windows Media & it took exactly 1 hour to rip a 1 hour c.d.  Something's not right here.  It's got to be something on my computer.  I'm just a little old aerobics instructor trying to rip music to itunes so I can then make a playlist to put on my ipod for my class.  I'm also not very knowledgeable about computers & what makes them run etc.  Would appreciate any help.  Thanks.

  • When I try to use Mac Help or any other help menu, the help window opens up but it is empty.  How do I resolve this issue?

    When I try to use Mac Help or any other help menu, the help window opens up but it is empty.  How do I resolve this issue?

    Try moving these files to the Trash one at a time and test (but don't empty yet.)
    /Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences/com.apple.helpviewer.plist
    /Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences/com.apple.helpviewer.LSSharedFileList.pl ist
    If doing this doesn't help, then navigate to this location and delete the cache (but not the enclosing folder.)
    /Users/yourusername/Library/Caches/com.apple.helpviewer
    All are located in your home folder Library.
