Conventions

Every application uses its own menu bar. If a menu command is dimmed, it is not available in the
context of your work at that time. Ellipses (…) identify commands that require dialog entries. Check
marks (✓) identify selected menu items. If you select a region of text that has more than one font
size and/or style associated with a portion (though not all) of it InfoClick displays a dash (-) beside
all those attributes partially represented in the selection. Wedge-shaped symbols (

) identify

submenus which open to give you access to more commands.

InfoClick menu

Cocoa application, any services you add to your

/Library/Services folder are available to you in
