Organizing the common list section of the Add New menu

The section at the start of the Add New menu is known as the common list portion of this menu.

The General::Model::CommonList property controls which elements appear in this section, when applicable.

Procedure

  1. Open your project.
  2. Open the Features window. Choose File > Project Properties.
  3. Locate General::Model::CommonList and change the values for this property.
  4. Click OK.
  5. To confirm your change, right‑click a package in your project and select Add New. Only those values you entered in CommonList appear, as long as they are applicable to your project.

Results

Note the following information:

  • Whatever element that is removed from the common list group of the Add New menu appears in the middle section of the Add New menu if it is relevant for your project. The element must appear somewhere if it is a valid element for your project.
  • If the AddNewMenuStructure property is in use, that property overrides the properties mentioned here.
