4.4.6 Making menu items out of columns
If you make a column that does
something useful, you can make it into a menu item by following these steps:
- Make your column look nice. Drag with the left mouse button on the object
name buttons to re-order items in the column, and add comments to explain
what are the input fields and what are the output. Double-click on the column
title bar to add a helpful title to the column.
Add a comment by typing your text (enclosed in double quotes) into the line
at the bottom of the column. Left-drag the row to the right place.
- Select Make Column Into Menu Item from the
column title-bar menu, see §4.4.1.
This will open up a new dialog box which you can use to set a name for
your new menu item and the name of the top level menu
the item should be added to.
- That's it. You'll be prompted to save your new toolkit when you try to
quit nip2. We recommend you just say OK to the suggested location
for the file. Edit your menus with the programming window, see
§4.5.
