Configuring the Menu
When opening a custom framework test document in Author mode, the menu you created is displayed in the editor menu bar, between the Tools and the Document menus. The upper part of the menu contains generic Author mode actions (common to all document types) and the two actions created previously (with Insert table under the Table submenu).
