In applications that present graphical user interfaces, it is often
necessary to select an item, or a series of items, from a menu in
order to accomplish some action. The MenuChoice element
provides a wrapper to contain the complete combination of selections.
Formatted inline. The MoreInfo attribute
can help generate a link or query to retrieve additional information.
MenuChoice may generate arrows or other punctuation between
multiple GUI elements. The ShortCut may be suppressed, or
sometimes it is presented in parentheses after the rest of the items.
These elements contain menuchoice:
action, application, attribution, bibliomisc, bridgehead, citation, citetitle, classsynopsisinfo, code, command, computeroutput, database, emphasis, entry, filename, firstterm, foreignphrase, funcparams, funcsynopsisinfo, function, glosssee, glossseealso, glossterm, hardware, interfacename, keycap, lineannotation, link, literal, literallayout, lotentry, member, msgaud, olink, option, optional, para, parameter, phrase, primary, primaryie, productname, programlisting, property, quote, refdescriptor, refentrytitle, refname, refpurpose, remark, screen, screeninfo, secondary, secondaryie, see, seealso, seealsoie, seeie, seg, segtitle, simpara, subtitle, synopsis, systemitem, td, term, termdef, tertiary, tertiaryie, th, title, titleabbrev, tocback, tocentry, tocfront, trademark, ulink, userinput.
