Integrate special main menu by using Addon.xcu

Hello,

I know the Web site http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/WritingUNO/AddOns/Menus, but according to this guide, I can make a new main menu entry only in as follows:

Datei-...-<My menu>-Fenster-Hilfe

(Example for a german Main-Menu)

However, I am looking for a way to insert my menu (using Addons.xcu in an extension) anywhere on the menu, such as as follows:

<My menu>-Datei-...-Fenster-Hilfe

Is that possible? If so, how?


Greetings,
Jörg

You have to use "menu merging", as described here

Note that there is a dedicated list for questions like this:
