Menu Guidelines and Style Menu Guidelines and StyleIf you look at most Windows applications, youll notice that some items on the menu striptend to appear repeatedly in the same place, and the contents of these items are oftenpredictable. For example, the File menu is typically the first item on the menu strip, andon this menu, you typically find commands for creating a new document, opening anexisting document, saving the document, printing the document, and exiting theapplication. The term document means the data that the application manipulates. InMicrosoft Excel, it would be a spreadsheet; in the Bell Ringers application that youcreated in Chapter 20, it could be a new member.The order in which these commands appear tends to be the same across applications; forexample, the Exit command is invariably the last command on the File menu. Theremight be other application-specific commands on the File menu as well.An application often has an Edit menu containing commands such as Cut, Paste, Clear,and Find. There are usually some additional application-specific menus on the menustrip, but again, convention dictates that the final menu is the Help menu, which containsaccess to help as well as “about” information, which contains copyright and licensingdetails for the application. In a well-designed application, most menus are predictable andhelp ensure the application becomes easy to learn and use.TIPMicrosoft publishes a full set of guidelines for user interfaces, including menu design, onthe Microsoft Web site at http://msdn.microsoft.com/ui.
