Abstract
A database can override FileMaker’s default menu bar with custom menus. The level of customization can vary based on your needs, ranging from changes to intercept a few functions to building a completely unique desktop experience. You can build one set of custom menus that dynamically change based on various conditions or create multiple sets that are installed contextually based on the layout. Customizing menus elevates a solution from a mere database document to a custom application. This chapter explores the basics of creating custom menus.
