Setting a refresh mode for menus

For all menu types (except character menus), you must set a refresh mode:

• On Connect—Retrieves the menu when the user opens the menu after selecting the form. To update the menu, the user must reopen the form.
• On Open—Retrieves the menu each time the user opens it. Frequent menu retrieval can slow performance, so select this option only when it is critical that the menu be up-to-date.

• On 15 Minute Interval—Retrieves the menu when the user first opens it and when 15 minutes have passed since the last retrieval. Balances the need to be current and the expense of constant menu retrieval.

  For a browser, this option behaves the same as On Open.
  Refresh modes affect only a menu's contents, not its definition. The definitions of all menus are updated every time you reconnect to a form.

Character menus are static, so they are not refreshed.
