Fast Guide to Using The Menu Stacks

If you have not already installed the menu stacks, please see this page.

An example project file has been provided for you in the Menu Stacks downloads dmg. You can use it as an example on how to use the Menu Stacks.

If you are using a Remora or Moomagic Dynamic Stack, then things are really easy. Just drag the stack onto the page and that’s it.

The rest of this page refers to the non-dynamic versions, where you can create your own custom menu items.

When you add a Stacks page, you will see the installed stack plugins on the right. Scroll down until you see the Remora stacks.

Let’s use the Remora Horizontal stacks as an example.

1. Drag the Remora Horizontal icon onto the Stack page.
2. Scroll up the list of stacks and drag out a 2-column stack (comes default), and place it inside the Remora Horizontal stack.
3. Drag a Text stack into each of the 2 columns:
4. The Text stacks will need to be modified to look like this format:
   The left column represents an item in the top level menu. Enter the words that should appear in the top level menu, and then click on the Add Link button in your RapidWeaver editor. There should only be one line in the left column per “2 Columns” stack.

   The items on its corresponding right column are items under that item in the top level menu. There can be many lines entered here, each line corresponding to an item in the submenu.

   Therefore, a “2 Columns” stack will allow you to create one top level menu item and its submenu items.
   To get another top level menu item, just drag in another “2 Columns” stack:
   This will show:

Format of the Submenu items

This screenshot shows how to enter the items for the submenu items:Items in the first level of the submenus are separated by entering each item on a new line.

However, if you want to have a second level of submenu under a specific submenu item, you will need to click on the List Button in the editor, as each item in the second level has to be entered as a list.
