Help needed for adding display menu items and functions

Hi

I have tried to look into different posts about adding display menu items and functions, like macro's.
I must admit, I am not clever enough to understand the arduino code for that change.

1.
I would like to be able to have a semi automatic leveling function, that I can start from the display.
This functions should work in that way:
I start it by a menu item
Printer home all axes
Printer goes to first postion (X,Y,Z positons could maybe be setup in firmware)
I calibrate bed
I press ok on display
Printer goes to second position
I calibrate bed
I press ok on display
Printer goes to third position
I calibrate bed
I press ok on display
Printer home all axes.

2.
I would like to have a menu function to be able to select between up to 6 different extruders to one hotend using a 2-6 way filament splitter.
This functions should work in that way:

I select one menu point of 6 to deselect actual filament extruder.
Printer home all axes.
Printer lower Z by 20mm.
Printer heatup hotend and wait until reached selected temperature.
Printer retract 2mm the actual filament when reaching 150 degree. (for bowden)
Printer retract certain lenght (specified in firmware) of actual filament extruder.
Printer don't turnoff hotend.
Printer beeps.

I then select new actual extruder from 6 other menu points.
Printer extrude certain lenght (specified in firmware) of selected filament extruder. Different lenght depending on extruder number.
Printer beeps.
Printer turnoff hotend.

Anyone who has seen some description about how to code that in Repetier/Arduino?

Anybody that could help me realizing this?
