     The menu control files are text files that reside in <CDS>\share\pcb\text\cuimenus

    There are several license levels of Allegro so be sure to pick the correct one.  You can edit the file in the directory or move it.  But I forget where Cadence searches for menus so I edit my "master" file.

    Someone on here had a bunch of tricks for editing menus...try some searching.
