The MenuFlags sub element of the NotesMenu-element determine where a menu should show and when to show it. Notes Menu Launcher is to a certain degree sensible to the user operation context, and allows the menus to show only if certain conditions are met.
For example, it's easy to tell Notes Menu Launcher not to show the menus in anything else but an open document in edit-mode. If the document is in read-mode, or the user is operating in a Notes view, the menu won't be activiated.
Note: The prefixes you see in all the menu flags has this meaning:
NAM - Notes Addin Menu
NCM - Notes Context Menu
The MenuFlags for Notes Addin Menus are:
