-
- 1. You can change the user level before and after your Copy Card command.
-
- 2. You can delete entire menus or any number of menu items and still remain
- in the higher user level.
- Commands such as: delete menuItem "New Card" from menu "Edit"
- or: delete menu "Font"
- You use "reset menuBar" to get back to the proper menu for a given user
- level.
-
- 3. You can also disable any menu item (make it grayed out)
- Command: disable menu "Edit"
- or: disable menuItem "Print a Card..." of menu "File"
- The opposite (to turn it back on, i.e. darken it) is enable.
-
- I think this should help.
