Menus

The menus are located at the top of the application window. They contain all the commands necessary for creating, editing and publishing documents.

The menus may differ depending on whether there is an opened document or not as well as on the type of the opened document and the authoring mode.

To open a menu, click it or use the Alt-accelerator. For example, to open the DITA menu, press Alt-I.

Important:

All editions of Serna support DITA. However, DITA usability tools (DITA dialogs available through the DITA menu and the DITA toolbar), which facilitate the insertion of common DITA constructs, and reference navigation are available in Serna Enterprise Edition only.

The Document > Open Recent menu item shows the list of the last 9 opened documents. When you move the mouse pointer over an item on the list, a tooltip is shown providing the Filename, Stylesheet and Schema information.
