Personalized Menus - Integration - Update 44 - Help - Hexagon

Personalized menus allow you to define the menu commands, startup options, find options, and view options that you use most in the Schema Editor. Personalized menus simplify the Schema Editor user interface so that you can access the commands that you need more quickly. You can also use personalized menus to define which Workflows dialog box or window that you want to see when you open the Schema Editor, which file configuration that you want to work with, what the default find and view options are, which edge definitions you see when you view files in the Schema Editor, and so on.

For example, if you only use the Schema Editor for mapping between an authoring tool and the SmartPlant schema, you can hide other commands and functionality that you do not use. You can save your preferences as a personalized menu configuration file.

Personalized menu configuration files are also used to define the default Schema Editor roles available on the Start menu. For more information, see Schema Editor Roles.

If more than one person will be using the same personalized menu configuration file on a computer, you can set a user environment variable to store the configuration file. Users can make additional modifications to the personalized menu configuration file without affecting other users.
