      Just a quick question about what decides the order in the Extensions menu?
      It's not alphabetic thats for sure.

        It is alphanumeric - and it is based on the name of each RB file that loads the code - the name of the menu item is not relevant.
        Native tools load before extensions in menus other than 'Extensions' [aka 'Plugins']
        So "Aardvark.rb" can create a menu item named "Zulu" near the start of the Extensions menu, while "Zyx.rb" will create an item named "Aaargh" near the end of the Extensions menu !
        If you make your own "Pixero" submenu within your module, and add everything under that submenu, then the items' order is set by the same loading order rules.

          Thanks for clarifying it.
          I had a hard time finding my own plugin in the menu and thought something was wrong with the code. 🤣
