There is a lot that UIM can do with programs driving things - various exit stuff is available - it's been awhile, and there are probably easier ways to get into menu management.

But you can define a menu area in a panel group, I believe, and probably have some dynamic stuff there. Oh to have some time to play! I still wish there were a UDA!

I am primarily a conduit of information on this one. What I do know

to be flexible enough to allow changes without recompiling the
menu(s).

Makes sense. I think probably enabling and disabling certain menu items according to what's installed and a given user's authorities is about as dynamic as UIM menus get. (And everything I've done has been strictly fixed.)

I think I'll just shut my big mouth for now.
