Section 3 - Rules about Menus
In the Macintosh OS environment, there are a few items about
menus you need to be aware of. (The following images helps you
to view and understand these rules)
• Menu items can have a check mark in front
of them. This means the item is enabled and may be turned off
and on.
• Menu items may be dimmed or gray.
This means the item may not be selected at that time.
• Some menu items have ellipses after them. When
an ellipse item is selected, a dialog box will appear with
additional information and options about the item.
• Some menu items will have a series of keyboard
characters after it. This indicates that this menu item can be
executed by pressing the corresponding characters on the keyboard
(in following image, pressing Command + Z executes the undo menu
item).
• Some menu items have an arrow to their right. Hovering
over these opens a sub-menu.
