Windows 7 - Origin 7.5 SR7

Hi,
I would like to execute a LabTalk script form the menu bar. Following the example in the manual, I have the following MyConf.cnf file (just as a test):

menu -wg; // available for worksheet or graph
menu 3; // activate View menu
// define menu command text and script
menu (TEST)
{
type 'It works';
};

and I have modified the origin.ini, adding MyConf to the list.
However, after closing and re-opening origin, I don't see the new prog appearing in the menu bar.
Could you please help me ? Many thaks
Paola

Hi Paola,

You can refer to this example and have a try again. When you follows the example, please change the script in step 1 to yours (see below), and ignore step 5. 

[DefFuncs]
menu -wg; // available for worksheet or graph
menu 3; // activate View menu
// define menu command text and script
menu (TEST)
{
type 'It works';
};

Also, please note that if your script is in a cnf file, you cannot ignore the extension (cnf here) in step 3, such as: 

run.section(MyLTFuncs.cnf, DefFuncs);
