Just like MAC OS X, Mesa has a hierarchical menu structure consisting of a main menu with subordinate menus, some of which have sub-menus of their own.

A menu item that displays -> opens a sub-menu.

If a menu item is grayed out then it is not available at the current moment. However, if you perform an action which makes that menu item possible, then the item will ungray and be usable again.

If a letter or punctuation mark appears at the far right of the menu item, that command can be executed either by clicking with the mouse on the menu item, or by holding down the Apple key while typing the indicated character.

EG Apple-S is the Shortcut Key for Workbook-Save

  • Menus can be dragged to any point on the screen and released to 'stick' at that point.
  • Menu commands can be dragged as Icons into the Toolbar by using Window->Customize Toolbar.
