Following on from my other post, I've been using the following line of code successfully to add a custom item at the bottom of the Edit menu in Acrobat.
Now with the "new experience," customers are reporting that they're no longer seeing the menu item.
Since I do not seem to have access to the "new experience" yet, I can't test anything.
Does anyone know what the equivalent line should be with the "new experience"?
(This is part of a script that is placed in Acrobat's Javascripts folder, of course.)
app.addMenuItem({ cName: "Super Duper", cParent: "Edit", cExec: "super-duper()" });
Thanks!

P.S. In the Javascript Guide (dated 2/1/21) that I've been using, it says:
Note: Starting Acrobat X, the number of top-level menu items has been reduced. The menu items available from
Acrobat X onwards are: File, Edit, View, Window, and Help. If any of your previous scripts referred to a top-level
menu item that no longer exists, the reference will not work.
Is there an update for the "new experience" Acrobat?

It takes a few seconds longer to load the script than the classic UI but the menu items under Edit eventually do show up.

That's interesting.
So, the Edit menu still exists in the new experience? (I don't have a way of checking until they roll it out in my part of the world – or whatever is causing the delay.)

Yes. It still exists.
