I am attempting to add a Section symbol to the pulldown menu. This symbol does not seem to be listed in the menus.cfg file, but I found the "\xa4" definition in the Character Sets PDF file that comes with FrameMaker.
This is the procedure I'm using, but it is not working and the symbol does not appear in the dropdown list:
1) In the cmds.cfg file, under the *** Special Menu ***, I added the following text:
<Command CharSection>
<Definition \xa4>
2) In the menus.cfg file, under *** Pull RIght Menus ***, under the list that starts with <Add CharBullet >, I added the following line of text:
<Add CharSection >
3) I saved and closed both files, restarted FrameMaker, and the Section symbol does not appear in the list.
I hope that someone can help with this problem.
