Creating Lower-Level Menus
To create a lower-level menu:
- In the main menu, select a parent item.
- Create a new menu object below the existing main menu item.
The Menu Editor creates a menu item, labelled <New Item>.
- Replace the default label.
- To create additional items, repeat steps 2 and 3.
Note: By adding menu items below the main menu
parent item, you have converted the parent item into a menu heading. Oracle Forms automatically switches the parent item's Command Type property to
reflect this. Examine the parent item's properties in the Property Palette;
the Command Type property has changed from PL/SQL to Menu.
Once you create a menu off of the main menu, you can create submenus, which are displayed to the right of menu items.
