User popup menu in toolbox
Is there any way of controlling what program functions appear in the
User menu of the Toolbox? My Prime lists all of my program in this list.
It would be nice to list only those programs that I most frequently use in the
User menu.

Not at this time. If they are EXPORTed, they will show up there.

Note that if you has a single function in a single program file, it will be very fillled quickly. You can have multiple functions per file and group things that way.

Although I work for HP, the views and opinions I post here are my own.

Just create a custom key that pops up a menu listing the programs you like to have.

I wasn't aware that there was a menu command that creates popup menus. I know
how to create soft menus, but popup menu style would be preferable for my needs.
Is this documented in the AUG?

Here's an example of what I meant (applied to creating a custom units menu that even remembers the last selection):

It's just the CHOOSE command. However, since we have a touch screen, there really is no reason to limit ourselves to just six items. Using CHOOSE, you can enable users to scroll the list of items to pick, and then simply tap on the item to select it.

Thanks Han. I never knew that the Choose command did popup style menus. I will
try that out.
