How to add a new tab on the global menu in LL 9.6?

I want to add a new "tab" like Personal/ Enterprise/ Tools/ Help which is always present on the global menu and also has quicklinks like "My Workspace" at Personal.What is the best way to do this?Is there a documentation for it?Thanks for every hint!

Hi Eva-Maria, You will have to subclass WEBLL:Root:NavigationCallback:LivelinkNavigationCallback in order to create a menu item or an entirely new menu. For a new menu, you will need to add an additional $WebLL.WebUtils.AddMenu() line (defining the new menu) to the __Init() method The Execute() method of your new object defines your menu items.An example of multiple menu construction is WEBLL:Root:NavigationCallback:LivelinkNavigationCallback:LLLivelinkNavigationCallbackHope this helps, Steve

Hi Steve!Thank you for your answer.It still remains the problem to get the quicklinks for the new tab on the global menu.In "my" LivelinkNavigationCallback.Execute I return the new menu item and the quicklinks for it. In WebLL:LivelinkNavigationCallbackSubsystem.Items an assoc for the quicklinks is built, but not very dynamically. There are only 6 quicklinks possible. The builded quicklinks of Personal/Enterpise/Tools are merged with the quicklinks returned by my LiivelinkNavigationCallback. So I need 8 quicklinks. I solved the problem by overriding WebLL:LivelinkNavigationCallbackSubsystem.Items. But I'm not sure if there is a better way to do this.
