Controlling the Display of Menus

You can control the on-screen appearance of menus in two ways. You can turn on or off the ÒshadowÓ that displays around them, and you can control how they open. These options apply to menus on the Menu bar and to the menus that appear when you right-click a section or page template in the Site Hierarchy pane or a fragment in the Toolbox.

To control how menus appear on-screen, perform these tasks:

1. Click View, then select Customize.

2. Click the Menu tab.

3. Under Select Context Menu, select any popup menu.

   
   

   Note: Whichever menu you select, your selection in step 4 applies to all menus in Designer.

   
   

4. Under Menu Animations, select the animation to use:

   • None: The list of menu commands appears in the usual way.

   • Unfold: The list of menu commands opens from top-left to bottom-right.

   • Slide: The list of menu commands opens from top to bottom.

   • Fade: The list of menu commands slowly appears on-screen.

5. To display a shadow effect around menus, click the Menu shadows check box. To hide the shadow effect, clear the check box.

6. Click Close to close the Customize dialog.
