Changing the Application Menu Type from Classic to Multi-level

You can change your application’s menu type by deleting existing menu control files and adding a multi-level menu control.

Step 1:  In Iron Speed Designer’s Application Explorer, right-click the menu control and select the ‘Delete’ option.

Step 2:  In Layout Editor, add a new multi-level menu control to your application page by dragging it from the Toolbox onto your page.  The new multi-level menu panel will be visible only on the current application page.

Step 3:  Select the newly added multi-level menu control and open the Configure Menu dialog (Right-click, Configure...).  Add individual menu items to the control’s .sitemap file as necessary.  Menu items from the previous Classic style menu are not automatically copied to the new Multi-level menu.

Step 4:  Build and run your application.
