Running SyItem in Elevated mode - Challenges

Hi folks - Does anyone know if there is a limitation that prevents us from configuring whether to run an item or not in elevated mode (instead of needing to select Action Modifier "Run Elevated" each time)? I can never recall which items need elevated privileges, so I end up launching the program and sometimes making some selections before I am then told it needs elevated privileges, and so I need to close and then run after selecting the "Run Elevated" Action Modifier; I would rather this is configured on an item by item basis.
Also, any reason why "Run Elevated" is not an available Action Modifier in the 'Configure Item' window?

Well a program that absolutely needs elevation should be created with the proper manifest to inform Windows about that but it not depends on me.
Other programs can run with or without elevation according to your will. Unfortunately SyMenu lacks on this field. You can configure an item to be executed on SyMenu start or end, and you can configure if this item must be executed elevated or not. But it is a feature only available on autoexec on start/end. I know, I know... I should implement it directly as a program option. For now be patient and use the action modifier.
Why isn't "Run Elevated" available in the 'Configure Item' window? No reason for that. I have to introduce it. Be patient again.

K thanks for taking the time to respond, and so quickly. Being new to SyMenu, I wasn't sure if I was merely missing something.
I'm pleased with SyMenu enough to be investing a lot of time migrating to it. Thanks for making SyMenu available.
With Regards- Sam
