Pinning Menu Options

Pinning Menu Options

You can customize your citation and list menus using the pin feature. This customization allows you to more easily access your favorite or most commonly used options. Menu items you choose not to pin will still be available, but will require an additional navigation click.

“Study Tools” and “Read” Panels

For citations, the 3-dot menus in the “Study Tools” Panel will default to pinning the “Add to Recent List” option, whereas the 3-dot menu in the “Read” Panel will not have any default pins. Besides these defaults, the process of pinning menu options is the same in both panels.

To unpin a default menu option or to pin additional settings, follow the steps below.

  1. Click on a 3-dot menu in the “Study Tools” or “Read” Panel.

  1. If this is your first time customizing the 3-dot menu in the “Study Tools” Panel, then “Add to Recent List” and its corresponding options will be pinned.

  1. You’ll notice that it is now pinned open when you click on the 3-dot menu. These pinned options allow you to more easily access their corresponding sub-options (“Citation”, “Free Flowing”, etc.)
