"Inside LightWave v9"

You are greeted with a panel that looks very similar
to the Configure Keys panel from the previous exercise (Figure 2.25).
Figure 2.25 The Configure Menus panel, chosen from the Edit drop-down list??™s Edit Menu
Layout command.
Be sure to use the Save button within the Configure Keys panel to save your keyboard
setups. Should you choose to select the default preset, your changes are gone forever.
2. You??™ll use the panel the way you did editing keyboard shortcuts.Most tools are
already out on the interface, but this panel is great for moving buttons, adding
new menus, or creating buttons for your third-party plug-ins. Select the Parent in
Place listing from the Menus column on the right, as shown in Figure 2.26. This
determines the location of your new button; it will appear just beneath the Parent
in Place button in the Top Group of toolset buttons.
Figure 2.26 You can select and edit any existing menu in the Configure Menus panel.
3. To the left of the panel, select the Rendering category. Expand it, and select
Render Current Frame. This will be dimmed because it??™s already assigned to the
F9 key and has a button, but you can still create another button for it.
