Editing menu objects
You can resize and arrange menu objects to create uncluttered, clean menus. You can also
rotate and flip objects to create interesting effects. When you have sized and positioned an
object as desired, you can lock it in place to prevent unintentional changes. You can also
duplicate menu objects within a menu, or copy and paste them onto other menus.
