Customizing the List of Actions
Script Editor contains four default action groups: All Items, SVS Items, Favorites,
and Custom. You can add up to 10 additional groups and add any actions that appear in
the All Items group to any other group. The All Items group contains all actions, and
you cannot remove this group or any of its actions. You can remove any of the other
groups and edit the actions that appear in the groups.
To add an action group
1. Right-click anywhere in the Actions list and select Add Group.
The Group Name dialog box appears.
2. Enter the name of the new group and click OK.
The Select Items for Group dialog box appears.
3. Select the actions to include in the group and click OK.
The new action group appears with the actions you selected.
