APEX - navigation bar with drop-down options

Steve.1234555-OracleOct 25 2016 — edited Oct 27 2016

I'm trying to setup a top navigation bar similar to the APEX 5 menu bar options:  navigation options along the top row next to the logo, some with sub-menu options you can expand and click.  I found this article for the same question, however it doesn't fully explain how to do this.

I've been able to update the navigation bar with menu items (looks like it's the Navigation Bar and not the Navigation Menu that is used to do this) and setup some list entries as sub-menus (i.e., have a parent list entry noted noted).  In the app, the nav bar shows the sub-menu icon so it looks like you should be able to expand the menu item and get more options, but it simply navigates to one of the sub-menu page links.  How do you setup the sub-menu items properly?

In User Interface Details I've set the Navigation Bar with the following settings:

  • Implementation: List
  • Navigation Bar List: Desktop Navigation Bar
  • List Template: Top Navigation Menu
  • List Template: "Use default template options" and ""

Also, how do you update the coloring of the menu items?  Is this dependent on the application theme or a template?

Is there more detail on this, or a tutorial, posted somewhere?

Thanks,

Steve
