19.2. Multiple menus

Specifying a name attribute for the menu element lets you create an XXE GUI having several menus which are specific to the type of the document being edited.

Example:

In XXE_user_preferences_dir/addon/xhtml.xxe, add something like this:
```
<menu name="menu2" label="My XHTML Menu">
  ...
</menu>
```
In XXE_user_preferences_dir/addon/docbook.xxe, add something like this:
```
<menu name="menu2" label="My DocBook Menu">
  ...
</menu>
```
Notice that the same name menu2 is used in all XML application specific configuration files.

In XXE_user_preferences_dir/addon/customize.xxe_gui (see XMLmind XML Editor - Customizing the User Interface), add something like this:

<menuItems name="configSpecificMenuItems2">
  <class>com.xmlmind.xmleditapp.desktop.part.ConfigSpecificMenuItems</class>
  <property name="specificationName" type="String" value="menu2" />
</menuItems>

<menu name="configSpecificMenu2" label="_My Menu">
  <menuItems name="configSpecificMenuItems2" />
</menu>

<menu name="fileMenu">
  <menu name="configSpecificMenu2" />
  <insert />
</menu>
