ELEMENTS    
     

Copy Item Style

Stores the style of the selected element so that it can be used to "paint" similar elements.

 
     

Paste Item Style

"Paints" the selected element with the style stored by the Copy Item Style feature.

This operation does not change the contents of the selected element. It changes only its Style properties.

 
     

Copy Item

Copies the selected item to the Clipboard.

If the selected element has any children (i.e. elements linked to it) the copy WILL NOT apply to them too. This means that the clipboard WILL NOT contain both the element and its child elements too.

 
     

Paste Item

Inserts the content of the Clipboard into the menu structure.

When pasting the clipboard element, a new element will REPLACE selected element in the menu structure.

 
     

Add

Adds a new item or container in the menu structure.

If the selected element is an item, the new container is placed below it as a child.

If the selected element is a container, the new item is placed below it at the end.

 
     

Remove

Deletes the selected item or container from the menu structure.

If the selected item or container has any child elements, the child elements are deleted as well.
