4.2 Modifying a Menu Component

Once you have selected the Left, Right or Horizontal menu tab, you will be allowed to modify the requested menu component. If menu items have been previously defined, you will see a screen as shown below.

If this is a new menu component, there will be no menu items configured for the menu.

The option to include a menu separator image between the menu items is only supported for left or right menu components.

  • To include a menu separator image, check the associated box before building the menu. The process specific Menu Separator image is defined using the Menu Features. The default system wide Menu Separator image is defined using either the Menu Features with current process DEFAULT, or using the System Variables characteristics from the Wizard Home Page. The process specific Menu Separator image (*LW3PMSP_<process name>) is used over the default system wide Menu Separator image (*LW3MENUSEP).
  • Check the box just before using the Build Menu button. If you check the box and use the Add Menu Item button, the box will be unchecked when you return to this screen after adding the menu item.
  • Press the Add Menu Item button to enter the parameters for a new menu item.
  • Press the Delete Menu button to delete the menu definition and associated components.
  • To modify or delete a specific menu item, select the appropriate action against the item from the menu item list.
  • Press the Build Menu button once you are satisfied with the definition of your menu component. The menu cannot be used until it has been built. The message "Menu created successfully" will be issued when the menu has been created. Ensure the new menu is included in your presentation layout using the Layout Features.

Note: If you have menu components created by earlier versions (before V10.0) of the Web Functions Wizard, when you display these menus using the current Web Functions Wizard, the menu definitions will be automatically converted to support the new format. Once you have viewed the menu using the current Web Functions Wizard, your menu definition will no longer be available for modification or review using an earlier version of the Web Functions Wizard. The associated menu component will not be modified until you select to re-build the menu using the new Web Functions Wizard.
