Panel groups, which are part of UIM (user interface management) are not anywhere near the list of no-longer-supported or withdrawn-from-marketing. There has never been a UDA, although I have always wanted one. Oh, well! The source is a markup-language, based on Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML), same as HTML, etc., are.
Here is a page on sourceforge about UIM -
https://i5toolkit.sourceforge.net/rpg/page_uim.html
Full documentation is in Application Display Programming, there's a link on that page, and it's still available in Knowledge Center.
Cheers

One kind of menu. Not all of them. When I learned about creating help panels myself, I immediately found the included help formatting for menu panel groups very appealing. Plus, menus get formatted automatically, scroll automatically if entries won't fit one screen, look much more IBM'ish, have not three objects for a single menu but just a single one.
On the minus-side, you are *forced* to provide online help elements for menu items. Wait. Is that really a minus? ;-)
so we can continue to maintain/build green-screen menus without SDA, even if it's removed.
You can do so with any text editor (aka SEU, SEU, and SEU), presuming they don't remove the crtmnu *cmd. :-)
