User based custom menus

[El_Pablo]

I'm quite a newbie with Custom Menus, is it possible to automatically set custom menus to a given privilege set under certain layouts?

All that without scripting?

If scripting is needed what is the best practice?

Are the menus for a privilege set the same across layouts? If they are you set all menus to File Default and on start up run a script step installing the menu set using on If[] Else If[] with the "File Default" option checked.

Otherwise, the simplest simplest way is to have an "OnLayoutLoad" script trigger that checks privilege set and installs the appropriate menu set.

Unfortunately, the layouts are different depending on which table the user is working.

I guess I'll have to use a bunch of "if" in the script.
