How to: Group Menu Items

For readability, separate groups of similar menu items with dividing lines. For example, in Visual FoxPro, the Edit menu has a line separating the Undo and Redo commands from the Cut, Copy, Paste, Paste Special, and Clear commands.

To group menu items

1. In the Prompt column, type \-. This creates a dividing line.

2. Drag the button to the left of the \- prompt to move the dividing line until it appears where you want it.
