Hello! I’m trying to make a custom meny where every item takes users to different forms. But I would also like quick actions on some of the menu items that adds specific rows straight away. Is this possible in list-view or do I need to set up the menu as a special detail view with buttons and stuff? Any links to video or text describing custom menus would also be really helpfull. cheers! Mei ---

The action on a list is usually set to Show Details Screen by default, but you can create a custom action instead. What I would to is create a custom action with several IF statements that can perform different actions based on the item that was clicked. > **[Custom Actions](https://docs.glideapps.com/all/topics/actions/custom-actions)** > > Build multi-step actions and workflows ---

That is a great help. Thank you! That will also enable me to have some sort of visual event when a row is added! But what I really would like is little buttons on each list item that does diffrent actions. So one action if the list-item is pressed and others if the buttons are pressed. See screenshot below. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/3/5/35955b320c7463cfb948f6e3bc3aa25bae5931fc.png) As I understand it I cannot use a list view for this but I might be able to get closer to that functionality by setting up a detail-view with different buttons inline lists etc. The design would be quite different though. ---

See screenshot below. Apps won’t allow you to have this setup. Glide Pages does have that with Collections, but they don’t have icons, only buttons with their titles. ---

@ThinhDinh Do I understand you correctly that it is impossible to use a list as a menu? Or just a list with diffrent actions? How would you make a custom menu screen with buttons for different screens AND some actions? ---

You can use a list as a menu, but the option to have multiple different actions or buttons (quick actions) on each list item is not possible. I don’t have any advice for setting up anything similar with the existing functionality. I think you would just have to play around with the different components and see if you can get something that still feels comfortable. ---
