Group divider and sort order

You go to Menu group and click on the three dots button to edit the available menu groups. 

 

You can subdivide in sub-menus by adding a slash and then the name of the sub-menu (e.g. Views/Special or Views/More). It's recommended to use a Sort Key for ease of editing and also to organize the sub-menus by adding a Sort Key that adds a numeric value. In the example above, 004, 00 is the views menu and the sub-menus are then added on as 01 and 02 like this: 00401 and 00402. 

You add a menu group by clicking the button. If you double-click the "Add Menu Group" button, you will get a debug property editor. 

 

You can edit the name here  

 

but we'll instead recommend you either click slowly a second time to go into edit mode or more easily, press F2 to add Views/Extra, for example. 

You add a sort key that fits with the other ones. In this case, 004, 003 for example, and then this will update immediately.  You can see that this will be added as a third option in the views menu. 

To see the menu options, we need to create an action. Add a global action and we now select the new one Views/Extra. So the extra action. Now looking at the view extra, the extra action.  

For each of the actions, you can also select a divider within the menu. For example, group one and group two. Looking at how that turns out, you will see under special there are not two groups with a divider in between. 

You don't see the divider group name in the menu itself. It is just a way to put them together. So if you have two actions with the same group identifier, they will be grouped in that area and then there will be a divider to the rest of the actions. You can then also add a sort order within that group.  So this will take precedence over the general menu group sort key. But if there is a sort key, this will be respected first. And then within that group, you can have a different sort order. 

When working with actions, we recommend you use these. Try it out by using the global menu based on the current settings rendition at the top right.
