Sunset Template: setting to collapse TOC entries

[jaybird]

Using the demo version of Flare 2018 (until I get approval to purchase). I am currently using Version 10 so am waaay behind on knowing new features.

I am trying to customize the Sunset Template...specifically, the side nav toc level 1 does not collapse. Level 1 entries stay open so that all subsequent level topics are constantly displayed. I can't figure out where to turn on collapsing Level 1 entries....SideMenu skin?

Thanks in advance

The Sunset template says it's a Top Navigation template, so the menu on the left is a menu poxy - and you can't set a menu proxy to collapse.

If you want a menu that collapses, you'd need to use a Side Navigation skin.
(i.e. in the main skin, go to the Setup tab and set the Main Menu Position to Left/Right.)

Thank you...I didn't know that about the menu proxy. I guess I would have to remove the menu proxy from the Master Page and turn on Side Nav. I was wondering why Sunset has a Top Nav skin at all because it doesn't use any menu items in that space. So much to learn.

Looking at the design of Sunset, you'd not be able to achieve exactly the same look using Side Nav.
You can style the Side Nav navigation control in the skin editor, but it'll be fixed to the left/right, and can't be positioned inside the page like that.
