App menu

The app menu is configured in Design, Navigation. The bar at the top of the screen has the dropdown for the language being edited, the revisions icon and the Save and Publish buttons.

Navigation screen of the backoffice with the top menu and the bottom menu, and an item of type URL expanded with its URL and its target

The app has two menu bars: Top menu and Bottom menu. Each one can be removed with Delete top menu or Delete bottom menu. Both are configured in the same way, with two sections: Menu Style and Menu Groups.

The items in a bar are organised into groups, which are added with Add Group. Each bar allows up to three groups, one per position: left, centre and right. The position is chosen with the group’s alignment icons.

When the centre group is the only one in the bar, Grow spreads it across the full width.

Each group has the Add Item button, the Compact and Advanced views and the bin to delete it. Items are ordered by dragging them.

  1. In the group, click Add Item, or expand an existing item.
  2. In Content, choose whether the item shows an icon or an image, and select it in Icon.
  3. Enter the Label Text. There is one per language: change the language with the field’s dropdown.
  4. Choose the Action Type, which defines what the item does when tapped.
  5. Fill in the Action Parameters that type requires.

In an item of type URL, there are two Action Parameters:

  • Target: whether the page opens inside the app (Same Window) or in the system browser (New Window).
