If I could vote, I would vote to have new procedures excluded from the Action menu by default. The databases I design are used in an office environment and most things would never be executed by a regular office user of PanX. Although I can see that another person might feel differently.
The default is to include them unless they start with a dot, but I’m sure you know you can exclude them individually in the Procedure Properties pane.
I don’t know if there would be enough reason to make an option in the Preferences for this.
Name your procedure by starting with a period as in “.mynewprocedure”. It will not appear under the action menu.
Jeff, good point. I could do that. If I could remember that I could also check the box to exclude from the Action Menu.
I think you might find this helpful from the Action Menu help pagel:
Unlisting Trailing Procedures
To keep an entire group of procedures out of the menu insert a procedure named
()
. Any
procedure below a procedure named()
will not appear in any menu.
I forgot about that one ( ). I withdraw my suggestion.
