some thing about the user menus in ADE!(complete!)

 Hi,

    After refering to the analogartist reference, i have copie the simui.menus to my home directory( or work directory), and modify it to add a menu in Tools by add this line ("mytool" ?callback()) in the Tools section of the simui.menus file, but this menu did not turn up when the analogArtist stratup. it seems that the default menus are loaded in ADE. Does anyone know the reason? when i use the command ddGetStartupAll("menus"), the result shows ("~/menu"), i think it is the menu folder which i placed in my home folder. i got quite confused about how to add a user menu in ADE, thanks for explaining this method to me.

         by the way, i have load this menu by adding this line "load("~/menu/simui.menus")" in my .cdsinit.

Regards,

zfeng

    I just tried that code in IC5141 (the menus file looks as if it was written for IC5141) and it worked fine. It suggests to me that you've altered the code in some way, because it shows that sevAddMenuItemLists has two arguments, the second of which is the number 2. That's not in the code anywhere, so presumably something got changed when you cut and pasted it?

    Which version of Virtuoso are you trying to use?

    Andrew.
