7.7. GMENU_LAYER

Typo3 also supports the use of DHTML menus on layers. But it requires the HMENU to consist of two menu objects where the first is GMENU_LAYER. The second can be either a TMENU or GMENU

Example:

page.includeLibs.gmenu_layers = media/scripts/gmenu_layers.php
page.10 = HMENU
page.10.1 = GMENU_LAYERS
page.10.1 {
  layerStyle = position:absolute;left:0px;top:30px;width:10px;VISIBILITY:hidden; 
  xPosOffset =-10
  lockPosition = x
  expAll=1
  NO {
    backColor = #cccccc
    XY = [10.w]+10, 14
    10 = TEXT
    10.text.field = title
    10.offset = 5,10
  }
}
page.10.2 = GMENU
page.10.2.wrap = |<BR>
page.10.2.NO {
  backColor = #99cccc
  XY = 120, 14
  10 = TEXT
  10.text.field = title
  10.offset = 5,10
}

Result:

Challenge (GMENU_LAYERS/1)

Can you modify this menu to a layout like this:

(All modifications are done to menu object 2, the GMENU)

Challenge (GMENU_LAYERS/2)

Can you modify this menu to a layout almost like this (at least the orientation of the menu):

(All modifications are done to menu object 1, the GMENU_LAYER)
