Auto Expand Application Menu

Maybe someone can point me in the right direction - How would I have the “Applications” menu auto expand from a collapsed state after logging in?

I would like to save my users from the extra click to access menu options if possible.

Thanks
(Love the software btw)

Hi,

You can extend Main Screen and expand menu items you want, e.g.:

sideMenu.getMenuItems().forEach(menuItem ->
                menuItem.setExpanded(true));

Alternatively, I would recommend instead of expanding menu items by default, move them from sub menu, e.g.:

<menu-config xmlns="http://schemas.haulmont.com/cuba/menu.xsd">
    <item screen="sales_Product.browse" insertBefore="administration"/>
    <item screen="sales_Customer.browse" insertBefore="administration"/>
    <item screen="sales_Order.browse" insertBefore="administration"/>
</menu-config>
