My new project has quite a large menu system. To avoid amending all the pages,
I wish to put it in a library, so that it would update globally. So far, I
have not been that successful. I am unable to click on all the PMM elements in
the Design view, so end up with only part of the menu in the lbi file. Where
could I look up the procedure, please? Or, is there a way I could update all
the menus throughout the website, without a Library file?

I would not recommend that you do this. Instead of a Library, use a
server-side include approach. It's MUCH more productive and efficient,
since with Library items, one change to the menu, and you would affect every
page that contains it in the local site, all of which must then be uploaded.
With an include, you only affect the include file itself, which, when
uploaded, is automatically included in each containing file.

You would have to do it manually, I think. In the include file (or the
Library item), place all of the HTML associated with the menu. In each
parent page, place all of the javascript associated with the menu. When you
merge the two, you will have a complete, working menu. You may find a
tutorial for this on the PVII site....

As Murray said, Library items are not as efficient as Includes, but if you
have no other choice, PMM works as a Library item if necessary. Have a look
at this movie:

Thanks... Had a look at the video. Does not seem to be all that complicated.. :-) will give it a try.

The PVII Team: Like the video, but rather difficult to remember all the steps. Is there something more prosaic, maybe a written instruction of how to do it?

PVII has a support forum where you could ask such questions. The Library
process is not so complex, however. You should go through the video for
understanding, and then just repeat the operations from memory! 8)
