PowerScript provides two separate sets of menus— Standard menus and Power menus.
The Power menus are smaller, revised versions of the Standard menus. They occupy less
real estate on the screen than the Standard menus. This gives you more space in which to
create pages while providing quick and easy access to the menus and most of their
options.
Using Power Menus
The illustration on the opposite page shows the available Power menus.
Tip
If you are using a standard television set as your Preview monitor, you will probably want to
use the Standard menus because the Power menus might be too difficult to see.
You can place Power menus anywhere on the screen. Normally, you place them outside
the Safe Title Area (which is a part of the screen you normally don’t use). See “Working
with the Safe Title Area” on page 115 for more information.
Most Power menus contain this button. Click the button to display the Standard
version of the Power menu.

Standard menus occupy a fair amount of
screen space. They reduce the amount of
space available for creating and editing
pages. They are self-explanatory and give you
access to all menu options. Power menus occupy less screen space,
giving you more space on-screen for creating
and editing pages. Some Power menus do
not contain all of the options available in the
Standard menus, and most of the identifying
labels in the Power menus have been
abbreviated or omitted.
