01

What Is the Menu Entry Swapper?

The Menu Entry Swapper is a built-in OSRS tool that lets players customize their right-click (context) menu. Before the overhaul, the system was functional but clunky: navigating the swapper interface took multiple clicks, the layout was confusing, and changes were limited.

The new Menu Entry Swapper Overhaul completely redesigned the system. The updated interface is accessible from the Settings tab, features a clean drag-and-drop layout, and supports reordering, hiding, and prioritizing menu entries with a single click.

    What Changed in the Overhaul?

    The overhaul introduced several major improvements to the context menu system. The most significant changes are: a completely new drag-and-drop interface for reordering menu entries, the ability to hide menu entries entirely (not just move them down), priority tags for commonly used options, and a search bar to quickly find specific entries.

    • Drag-and-drop reordering of all right-click menu entries
    • Hide unwanted menu entries (previously only movable to bottom)
    • Priority tags for frequently used options
    • Search bar for quick entry lookup
    • Mobile-optimized interface for touch controls
    • Profile save/load for different character types (PvP, Slayer, Ironman)
    • Reset button to restore defaults
    • Real-time preview of menu changes

    How to Use the New Menu Entry Swapper

    To access the new Menu Entry Swapper, open the Settings tab (gear icon in the top-right corner), then click the 'Menu Entry Swapper' option. The interface loads a categorized list of all menu entries, grouped by type (Items, NPCs, Objects, Skills, etc.).

    To reorder an entry, click and drag it to the desired position. To hide an entry, click the eye icon next to it. To set a priority, click the star icon. To search, use the search bar at the top of the interface.

    • Open Settings tab (gear icon, top-right)
    • Click 'Menu Entry Swapper' in the settings list
    • Drag-and-drop entries to reorder them
    • Click eye icon to hide/show entries
    • Click star icon to set priority
    • Use search bar to find specific entries
    • Save profiles for different character types

    Why This Overhaul Matters for Players

    The Menu Entry Swapper Overhaul is more than a cosmetic update. It significantly reduces the time spent navigating the context menu during skill-intensive gameplay. Players who regularly do Slayer, mining, cooking, or other repetitive tasks will see the most benefit.

    For PvP players, the ability to set priority tags means you can bring up your most-used items and abilities with a single click instead of scrolling through the menu. For Ironman players, the profile system lets you save separate menu configurations for different stages of progression.

    • Reduces menu navigation time for repetitive tasks
    • Priority tags bring up common options faster
    • Hide entries you never use to declutter menus
    • Profile system saves time for multi-character players
    • Mobile optimization makes it usable on touch devices
    • Search bar eliminates manual scrolling
    • Real-time preview confirms changes before saving
