An outwardly expandable radial menu, such as a plus-shaped menu, may be launched in a user interface screen and may include a center option and up to four other options arranged to the left, right, upward, and downward relative to the center option. The position of each of the options may be associated with certain option categories. A traditional selectable menu, such as drop down menu, may be appended to the plus-shaped menu. A determination may be made regarding whether a portion of the plus-shaped menu will exceed a display boundary of the user interface screen. A placeholder may be displayed in place of the portion that is determined to exceed the display boundary. In response to user navigation to the placeholder, the plus-shaped menu may be shifted so that the portion replaced by the placeholder may be displayed.
