1. New menu layout

Head into a fragment to transcribe items and you'll see that the menu is now a dropdown menu. Hover over the hamburger icon to see all the tabs to navigate to them. πŸ”

2. Manual patterns

Manual patterns have had a facelift due to popular demand! This will make making a new manual pattern super quick! ⏰πŸ’₯

1. Quick add - choose a selection of fields (title, price or title, description, price) to quickly create that pattern. Once it's there you can easily edit it, re-order it or add to it.

Edits:

2. Label patterns - when working on a larger menu you can now label a pattern so that multiple similar ones can have easy to see labels, no more getting confused!

3. Clone pattern - need to a pattern similar to one you already have? No problem, create a new pattern by first cloning it and saving yourself some time! 😊πŸ’ͺ

3. Category Extras

We're saving the best till last! ✌️πŸ₯‡

You can now create extras at the πŸŽ‰ category level πŸŽ‰. This means, if a category has the same extras for each item, you can first create the extra, at the category level before you start making items. No need to use auto-clone, these will be attached to each item!

Got to the end and realized all items need to have an extra (eg, "Pick a side salad or fries with your burger")? No problem, you no longer need to edit each item. Simply head to Category Extras, create a new Category Extra, then bulk add it to each item (defaults to the bottom of the extras for each item).

Features:

  1. Add Category Extra at the beginning - select from menu, appends to all items

  2. Add Category Extra at the end - select from menu, choose "Bulk add extras" button.Β 

  3. Clone Category Extra from an already existing extra group - choose any Category Extra or Item Extra from your menu and use as a Category Extra using the "Clone extras from other menu items" button

As well as a couple of new features for regular Item Extras:

  1. Add above / below current extras - Now there are 2 buttons to add an extra to an item, either above the current extras, or below the current extras. This will save you needing to reorder so often.

  2. Expand / collapse all extras - now you can quickly expand and collapse extras when creating items so that you can more easily see what you're doing!

Note: You can also add Category Extras in the Review Mode view:

Here's a video for all the Category Extra and Item Extra features in action:
