Rearrange Custom Menus, Menu Items, and Buttons

On Windows, you can rearrange the order of menus, menu items, and buttons that you create. For example, under the File > New menu, you could move your custom menu before the Data Table command.

In the item’s General properties, the Source determines whether you can move the item. You can move items if the Source is Custom Item. Built-in items cannot be moved. Items that are defined in other customization sets can be moved only in that customization set. See Change Customization Sets for details.

Note: The right-click menu has options for cutting and pasting items. To cut an item, you can also hold down the Ctrl key and press X, or hold down the Shift key and press Delete. To paste, hold down the Ctrl key and press V, or hold down the Shift key and press Insert.
