New Menu Item

hi experts
i have created a custom menu item using following steps
esign Console > Form Information > add new
Class Name Organizations.Merge
Description Move users from one organization to another
Type menuitem
Add following to xlWebAdmin.properties, xlWebAdmin_en_US.properties
Organizations.Merge=mergeOrgs.do?Display
menuItem.Organizations.Merge.link=mergeOrgs.do?MergeOrganizations
menuItem.Organizations.Merge=Merge
mergeOrgs.button.display=Merge Organizations
however, when i log in to an account to which that menu item has been assigned, it displayed the Menu with Name as
menuItem.Organizations.Merge
where i would like to have just Merge as the name. any idea what to amend??
best Regards

I believe you should just require these three lines embedded in the files:
*1. In xlDefaultAdmin.properties*
menuItem.Organizations.Merge.link=mergeOrgs.do?MergeOrganizations
mergeOrgs.button.display=MergeOrganizations
Remove the space between Merge & Organizations as I did and mergeOrgs.button.display should be method in getKeyMethod() of your code
*2. In xlWebAdmin_en_US.properties*
menuItem.Organizations.Merge=Merge
Preferably xlWebAdmin.properties and xlWebAdmin_en.properties should be updated as well. But doesn't matter much as usually internet explorer is set to en_US. Just confirm.
Thanks

Calling a dll from a new menu item in Bridge. Idiot help needed

Hi,
I'm trying to what I believe is a fairly simple script. I'm coming from a hobbiest Delphi background, and to be honest I'm finding JavaScript a little bit hard to understand. My requirements are simple - add a new menu item to Bridge which executes a call to a custom dll. Note I'm not expecting the dll to return anything here..
Looking at the samples provided even I can add the menu item - but getting it to successfully call the dll is a bit of a mystery.
The script compiles and adds the menu item, however the menu action doesn't call the dll. I believe it should be a fairly simple task and was hoping somebody here could steer me right. Here's my code (as you'll see a clear cut and paste job from the examples ;o)
Header 1
function SnpAddMenuItem()
this.requiredContext = "\tAdobe Bridge must be running.\n\tExecute against Bridge CS6 as the target.\n";
this.menuID = "snpmyMenu";
this.menuCommandID1 = "snpAddMenuItemSub1";
$.level = 1; // Debugging level
SnpAddMenuItem.prototype.run = function()
var retval = true;
if(!this.canRun()) {
retval = false;
return retval;
// Create the menu element
var newMenu = new MenuElement( "menu", "myMenu", "before Help", this.menuID );
// Create the menu item
var alertCommand1 = new MenuElement( "command", "Load Stuff", "at the end of " + this.menuID, this.menuCommandID1);
alertCommand1.onSelect = function (m1)
        ExternalObject.myDll = new ExternalObject('lib:/C/temp/apmDLL.dll');
        myDll.sendtoACRPM(1);
//      return retval;
SnpAddMenuItem.prototype.canRun = function()
// Must run in Bridge
if(BridgeTalk.appName == "bridge") {
// Stop the menu element from being added again if the snippet has already run
if((MenuElement.find(this.menuID)) && (MenuElement.find(this.menuCommandID)))
// $.writeln("Error:Menu element already exists!\nRestart Bridge to run this snippet again.");
// return false;
            MenuElement.remove(this.menuID);
return true;
$.writeln("ERROR:: Cannot run SnpAddMenuItem");
$.writeln(this.requiredContext);
return false;
if(typeof(SnpAddMenuItem_unitTest ) == "undefined") {
new SnpAddMenuItem().run();

The dll needs to be compatable with the criteria set in the JavaScript Tools Guide. There is an example in the Bridge SDK that can be downloaded from http://www.adobe.com/devnet/bridge.html
But it need someone who is knowledgeable with c++
It would be great if someone could write a wrapper to access other external objects.

New Menu Item entry in Standard Help Menu

Hi experts,
I have added a custom menu item under the standard Help menu of SAP using SE41 (Menu Painter) with pragram name: MENUSYST and status: MEN
I added the new entry and gave it a function code and activated the function code as well as the interface MENUSYST.
This worked fine and the entry is visible at the desired location. Now on click of this new entry, I need to open a URL. I had a look at the HELP_START function module but modifying that to call the URL on click of the new menu item, would require an access key.
Is there any other method available to accomplish the task?
Regards,
Reema.

Hello,
Basically I need to open a Custom Web Dynpro Application that I have created. Also I need to pass the trannsaction code as a parameter in the URL of the WDABAP Application.
Pl help me proceed.

Prem,
First of all, Welcome to the Apple Discussion Forums!
If you get no response here you may want to post your question over in the iPod Discussion Forums for the quickest response.
Pick the forum of the iPod in question (Usage).
Just thought that might get you a better/quicker response than here.
good luck,

New menu items in the Admin and Contributer interfaces

Hello,
While creating some tree tabs or start menu items I noticed, that some of them appear in the Admin interface, others in the Contributors. So, the question is: is it a feature of web center sites or what, because in the fatwire all newly created items could have been found in the admin interface.
PS using JSK 11.1.1.6.0
BR Denis

Out of the box we placed all content contribution functions in the contributor UI. We want users to use the new UI. Hence the removal from the Admin (formerly Advanced UI) UI. So the Admin UI is not more oriented to Admin/Dev tasks and does not show content assets.

Where are my new menu items?

Have installed two of the new apps (Premiere and Photoshop) and I see nothing on the menu of a WIndows 7 machine. I have the CS5 folder, the CS6 folder but no entries for CC. The control panel says they're installed but I can't run them from there. I can run them from the Program Files folder(s).
Do I have to create my own menu entries for all the CC apps?

Ok so to answer my own question. They eventually showed up (I swear they weren't there the first few times I looked) at the top level menu like they are when you install an Adobe standalone app. I binned them for convenience but at least I didn't have to create them myself.

Not getting a new menu item in the site menu after install

I have downloaded and installed the Spry Updater Extention, and when I reenter DW-CS3 and click on site > I do not see a link to update Spry. Nada, nothing... I've rebooted, etc. Nothing. I'm running Vista 64 and have tried disabling UAC with no effect. I really need to update these files. What's going on here?

How to customize or create new file menu items in Adobe Illustrator CS 6?

Hi all,
I have developed a script to perform some Custom action in Illustrator. I want to make this script run from a a File Menu Item so it can be invoked easily. Is there a way to customize Illustarator to add a new menu item or modify the existing menu tems functions. For example if the script needs to be invoked when the user click "Save" is there a way that could be done.
Thanks

Thanks Mark,
When you mean by limited menu location does it mean a plugin could be added under "File" as options or AI only allows it under "Window" where you launch the plugins from normally.

How do I edit and create new Spry2 menu items?

I have manged to use adobe air to style and insert a spry2 menu - looks OK
However,I do not undestand how to edit the menu items
i.e. creating new menu items and adding new sub menu items
On spry1 it was easy - just click the top of the menu and a wizard appeared at the bottom of the page
The spry2 menu icon seems to be unclickable/greyed out?
Can anyone help
[email protected]

Thanks for the reply - I already thought of that and I can edit the menu using code view (although I am not sure how you would 'see the sub menus in design view?) but I was wondering if spry2 has the same time saving wizard in the properties panel (as Spry1) that simplifies and speeds up the process?
To restate the question: I can see a spry2 menu icon in the properties panel but it doesn't do anything as it's greyed out.
Is there an option in dreamweaver (or adobe air which styles the menu) that makes a menu wizard work in the properties panel?
If not then I guess I have to do it in code view - very tedious!?

How to popup a new forms window upon clicking Tools- Menu item

Hi,
I am new to forms. Can some one help me out with the following requirement?
I need to provide a new 'Menu' item in the Tools menu of a seeded form and when the user clicks on the new menu option, he should get a new window wherein he can input some values. Then I need to read these user input values and pass them to a custom stored procedure and invoke the stored procedure on the database. After the stored proc finished executing I need to re-query the block on the seeded form to populate the latest records.
Appreciate if some one can let me know the implementation steps for the requirement mentioned above.
Thanks
Sara

Problem when trying to add a link to the left menu item!!!!

Hi everyone,
I am trying to put a new menu group on the left menu,with a link in that group for every one.On checking with the customization guide this is what i did
for one link i did add the following lines in each of the files
1)xlWebAdmin.properties
- menuGroup.Misc-Menu=Misc Menu
- menuItem.Misc-Menu.My-Nomination=My Nomination
2) xlDefaultAdmin.properties
- menuItem.Misc-Menu.My-Nomination.link=mynomineefrm?showfrm
3) repacked the war and the ear
4) Restarted my server
When I login into the administration(xelsysadm) page I didnt see any menu item with name "My Nomination" which i am supposed to see.
secondly it shows the menu item when ever i select some group and click on assign menu item.
Moreover, when I try to assign this menu item to all users group it gives me this error
On browser it prints
Permission Denied to Assign Selected Menu Items
You do not have the permissions to assign one or more selected menu items.
on console it prints
ERROR [SERVER] Class/Method: tcDataObj/eventPreInsert Error :Insert

Design Console > Form Information > add new
Class Name Organizations.Merge
Description Move users from one organization to another
Type menuitem
Add following to xlWebAdmin.properties, xlWebAdmin_en_US.properties
Organizations.Merge=mergeOrgs.do?Display
menuItem.Organizations.Merge.link=mergeOrgs.do?MergeOrganizations
menuItem.Organizations.Merge=Merge
mergeOrgs.button.display=Merge Organizations
Even you have to assign first to System Administrator group
First go to Manage Group
Select System Administrator Group
Select Menu Item
Click Assign and select newly craeted Menu Item and click Confirm
These are the steps to see the new menu item. To make this menu item working:
you'll have to write action class, form bean class and you'll have to create JSPs and make their entry in struts-config as welll as in Tiles-def.xml
Then your menu item will work.

How to position your script menu item

Hello,
How do you position your menu item in the right place.
I want to create a new type of document.
How do I get my menu item under the New sub menu.
Thanks.
P.

The MenuItem add function shows you how:
MenuItem add (associatedMenuAction: MenuAction[, at: LocationOptions=LocationOptions.AT_END][, reference: MenuElement][, withProperties: Object])
so all it takes is telling it to add yours LocationOptions.AFTER the New menu item.

Automatically debugging when calling a script from a menu item

Hi All,
I'm coming accross an issue that I was wondering if anyone can help me with or point me in the correct direction.
I have two start up scripts.
One runs in the "session" target engine and setups ups some custom menu items and actions which call some other custom scripts.
The other runs in my own custom session and is used to initialize and share common constants and functions between my custom scripts.
This all appears to run as expected and clicking on the new menu item calls the correct script however even without the ExtendedScript Toolkit running as soon as i click on the menu item it will load up the ESTK and break on the first line of the script. If I press F5 to continue processing it will finish and runs fine.
I am currently using the excellent extendables package (http://extendables.org/) to do some HTTP and simplify UI creation which does not specify a session.
Does anyone know what is causing the scripts to be automatically debugged or is there a setting that might be set to cause this?
Is this being caused by "session" calling "customSession" using code that will run in the default "main" session?
this really is irritating me at the moment so if anyone can help it would be much appreciated.
This is all done using JavaScript in InDesign CS 5.5
Thanks in advance

just a quick update.
After stripping back and stubbing out some code I have been able to trigger a "session" going to my "customSession" then to a non-session (the default) so this is not causing my issue.
As I mentioned above i am using the extendables package and this appears to be where my issue is arrising. as soon as i include the package:
#include "extendables/extendables.jsx"
i get the strange behaviour of it going into debugging mode on the first line of the script being run by my menuItem eventHandler.
This is without actually using any of the modules available in the extendables package just including it.
I will try to post a message on the website for this package but if anybody has any ideas about what might be in there that is causing this I would appreciate any ideas/suggestions/theories.
Cheers
