The example has shown how menus can be generated without too much effort. The Default Painter supports vertical sub-menus with up to three levels. If a deeper navigation structure is required, the TreeControl can be used. Other designs can be implemented by customising or integrating your own Painter.

Features MenuControl:

• Easy selection of the main menu option and the sub-menu option with the help of a path expression via the menu context.
• Main menu can be depicted as texts of with graphical elements.
• Supports filters for the context-dependent display of many options which are not dependent on authorization.
• Supports the authorization-dependent display of menu options.
• Design through Painterfactory can be matched to own StyleGuide (Corporate Identity).
• Optimized HTML-Code.
• Same Look and Feel in Microsoft InternetExplorer > 5.x and Netscape Navigator > 7.x
