Version 5.1.758 introduces a new compile option, allowing menus to function on rare server environments that require separate folders for javascripts and images.

dot.gif menu compile option of AllWebMenus
The file "dot.gif" is a required image file used to implement the cross-browser rendering of the menu. If missing, a small line will appear on the left side of every menu item and the menu may not show properly in some browsers.

Although it is an image file, it is inserted inside the "Javascript libraries" folder (eg: "awmdata") by default. This is absolutely fine for the vast majority of server settings.

However, in some rare server settings you may need to have it inserted into the "Menu images" subfolder by using the related "Place dot.gif in" option. In that way all images are placed together and only javascripts remain inside the "awmdata" folder.

On what rare cases is this option useful?

This is exactly the case where the customer should change the option from default to "Menu images folder".
