PanelMenu UI is a hybrid of accordionPanel and tree components, inspired by MyFaces Tomahawk’s panelNavigation component.
As like any other PrimeFaces Menu Component, it supports navigations (GET or POST-REDIRECT-GET), ajax and non-ajax actions.
Check out the early demo at PrimeFaces Labs.
Will panelmenu support programmatic support as menu component?
It does already.
You are right, i didnt see it. It has the model attribute.
Thanks
This looks awesome. Is there any change you can have a setting that will let the menu items behave like radio buttons? So they stay highlighted when they are selected and selecting a new one will unselect the old item?
That way, you could use this to switch to different views in an application and the menu component would show you which “view” is currently active (because it would be highlighted).
Great idea, thanks for the feedback, we’ll see what we can do.
awesome!!!
Great work Primefaces
The showcase demo does not work for me on Chrome. Anyone else?
Looking good on firefox though!
Maybe a browser cache problem?
I use Google Chrome, and I experienced the same behavior the first time I opened the showcase example by clicking on the hyperlink in this blog post. I almost added a comment here, but I opened the page again or F5 (refresh), and then I was able to demo this new component.
Yes, you are right. Didn’t even think about that
. Deleted the cache and it works now.
Great component for navigation menu feature.
Thanks a lot.
The panelmenu is a fantastic addition to the Primefaces suite. If the active menu gets selected and the others are unselected, it would be a very useful feature. I currently have a session scoped navigation bean that keeps the active selected.
primefaces has made development fun again and shields me from the low level complexities of coding. Thanks for this awesome framework.
If you add animation to submenu it would be great.
For example, in showcase, when clicking on navigations->links->primefaces , primefaces submenu does not animate. like when we open accordion.
By the way is this component available in the latest snapshot of 3.4? I could not find it inside primefaces-3.4-SNAPSHOT.jar!
