== Operation ==
=== System 1 ===
System 1 has been deprecated and is removed from use in version 8.0.1
=== System 2 ===
==== Items ====
Any menu topic, named other than the standard
The following holds:
#Tab is a valid separator of fields within ''CutilsMenu.def''
#Requires ''About'' as last item and ''Home'' as first
#Requires the following Top Level items in the CutilsMenu.def (Note that Print is optional): <code>Home, ToggleDashboard, Reports, Graphs, Records, Extra, Misc, About</code>
#The order of items between Home and About is arbitrary
<br/>For all drop downs ''items'' can be defined as follows:
Item <name> <type> <destination> EndItem
This Item definition line has space separated words.
The <name> is what you will see in the menu and may consist of one or more words
If <name> is a valid filespec on the seerver or a valid URL, it will display the contents of that filespec or URL. It is intended to be used as a specification for a small images to be displayed in the menu. It is the users responsibility to have a correct filespec or URL. No validation is done other than:
#<name> starts with <code>'./' OR '../'</code>
Example lines are shown at the bottom of this page and in the distribution file ''CutilsMenu-example-for-use.def''
Garbage in is garbage out.
▲Error recovery in case of errors is present. System 2 however cannot validate against the real world so while developing your menu: be precise or be prepared to rerun if your menu looks garbled. Garbage in is garbage out.
