Add an icon menu page
You can add new menu pages to the AutoCAD Electrical icon menu, and then
populate them with your own custom symbols. Each new page can have icon
selections that cascade down to other new menu pages. Once you click OK,
your trigger icon and new submenu page are added.
1 On the Icon Menu Wizard dialog box, select Add ➤ New submenu to
add a new icon to the menu.
NOTE You can also right-click in empty space and select New Submenu.
The Create New Submenu dialog box displays. Here you can select the
function that will be performed when the icon is selected from the icon
menu.
Three pieces of information are needed to trigger the new menu page.
2 On the Create New Submenu dialog box, specify the image file name and
.sld or .png graphic to appear in the icon button. The image name can
be manually typed into the edit box. You can browse to an existing .sld
or .png file to assign to the icon, use an image file that matches the active
drawing name, use an image file that matches a picked block on the
drawing, or use an image file with the same name as the block name
entered for the block name.
NOTE Browse cannot be used if you are using a slide library (instead of
individual <slide>.sld files). Manually enter these as "library name(slide name)".
3 Specify the submenu's title.
