, now browse to any menu and

select the item you want to add to the User Menu, then press the Exposure/Erase button
or the equivalent button on your camera. The item has now been added to your User Menu. Each
new item is added as the lowest on the menu. To delete an item, in Edit mode, select the item

Customizing hint / reminder: Some CHDK features require 2 or more options that work
together. An example, "Override Shutter Speed" might also need its associated "Value Factor"
selection and the "Shutter Speed Enum Type" if you frequently change that too. Be sure to
copy any related menu items together so they are still available where you need them in your
custom menu.
