Customize menus
Hiding and colorizing menu commands is a way to remove menu clutter and emphasize commands you frequently use. Note that hiding menu
commands simply removes the menu command from view; it doesn’t disable any features. At any time, you can view hidden commands by
selecting the Show All Menu Items command at the bottom of a menu, or you can choose Window > Workspace > Show Full Menus to show all
the menus for the selected workspace. You can include customized menus in workspaces you save.
You can customize the main menu, context menus, and panel menus. Context menus appear when you right-click (Windows) or Control-click
(Mac OS) an area. Panel menus appear when you click the icon in the upper right of a panel.
If you select a different workspace, such as Getting Started, some menu commands are hidden. To display menu commands, choose Show
All Menu Items at the bottom of the menu, or choose a different workspace, such as Advanced.
