Attaching menus to projects and subprojects

You can attach a base menu to all projects and subprojects or you can attach a default menu to all projects and subprojects that do not have a menu that is assigned to them.

To attach a menu to projects and subprojects, complete the following steps:

1. Click Window (on Windows) or IBM® Developer for z/OS® (on macOS) > Preferences.
   The Preferences window opens.
2. In the Preferences window, double-click Menu Manager, and select Menu Selection.
   The Menu Selection preference window opens.
3. From the Base Project/Subproject Menus list, select the menu that you want to attach as the base menu to all projects and subprojects.
   The list contains all of the menus for projects or subprojects that are available in the Menu Manager.
   After you assign a base menu, this menu is displayed for all projects and subprojects. Actions on the base menu display first in the pop-up menu, followed by actions from the default or custom menu.
4. From the Default Project/Subproject Menus list, select the menu that you want to attach as the default menu for projects and subprojects.
   The list contains all of the menus for projects and subprojects that are available in the Menu Manager.

   Note: All projects and subprojects share a default menu. To override the default, assign a custom menu to projects and subprojects on an individual basis through the Menu Selection properties page.
   When a default menu is assigned to all projects and subprojects, the generic menu does not display in the pop-up menu for projects and subprojects.
5. To save your selections and close the Preferences window, click OK.
