File Menu

[ ]

The New choice in the File menu either replaces the contents of the current window or opens a new window (which is recommended).

[ ]

When the user chooses New from the File menu, and the contents of the window are to be replaced, prompt the user with a message to save the window contents if possible.

Selected Menu

[ ]

The New choice in the Selected menu creates a new object of the single type managed and displayed by the application, and includes it in the selection scope displayed within the window.

[ ]

When the user chooses New from the Selected menu, give the newly created object a default name that does not conflict with the name of an existing object and allow the user to change the name.
