Hi Vincent-
cbdsymbol.men : is the file to edit in order to change what's available
while in a .dra.
Where the file is located depends on how you're configured. In my case,
there are 2 or 4 or so 'fallback' locations where menus reside, and an
order in which they are accessed. USER_HOME\USER_SITE\SKILL\MENU\ or
CDS_SITE\SKILL\MENU or .... etc.

===========
We have Allegro PCB 220 and in doing some research, I found out that I
was able to edit the main Allegro Menu file to add custom entries (in my
case I was able to add additional Grid selections that in turn call out
pre-recorded scripts that change the grids as per the selection). The
menu file that I changed was called "Allegro.men" and can be found in
the SPB_15.5/Share/Pcb/Text/Cuimenus directory. My question is this ....
What are the names of the menu files used in the Symbol Editor (aka -
(Package) Allegro:) and Mechanical Symbol Editor (aka - (Mechanical)
Allegro:) and where can they be found? I have tried various menu files
within the Cuimenus directory, but with no luck. Any help would be
greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance to all.
