Can someone give me any ideas how to achieve a user menu in the nav bar. I think I must be being stupid as surely it's a common thing.
All I can think of to do is use Avatar component and a list box for menu items, but as you can see, it's totally not fit for purpose:-)
Thanks
Rich
Hallo @rjones-cto,
I use a "Navigation" component for this. Look:
The main menuitem is set to be only a icon:
Hope this helps

Thanks Patrick! Apologies for late reply, I replied to email but it didn't appear here.
I think I am still being stupid.....
Did I choose right component, I can't get them to compress to a dropdown menu, just a list. Are you using just a select component with only icons?
It's not this either is it!
That's better!
One more question, how did you get the submenu to float outside the page boundary? Does it need custom CSS to set position: absolute or some other technique?
Thanks Patrick!
Well you certainly solved it, I copied and pasted yours, but check this out, it's like yours is a different version to mine. Mine is navigation 3 and yours is navigation 4. Checkout the difference in config options for the 2 components.
Weird isn't it? Thanks for the solution though, works great!
Best regards
Rich
