To copy other menu-items to build your custom User Menu (Up to 10 entries)...
Still in OSD parameters, select User Menu Enable [ Edit], now browse to any menu and
select the item you want to add to the User Menu, then press +/- button or the equivalent
button on your camera. The item has now been added to your User Menu. Each new item is
added as the lowest on the menu. To delete an item, in Edit mode, select the item and press
+/- button (or equivalent). When editing is complete remember to set the User Menu Enable
option back from "Edit" to either "On" or "On Direct".
Customizing hint / reminder: Some CHDK features require 2 or more options that work
together. An example, "Override Shutter Speed" might also need its associated "Value Factor"
selection and the "Shutter Speed Enum Type" if you frequently change that too. Be sure to
copy any related menu items together so they are still available where you need them in your
custom menu.
