    Before I start trying to do (or getting someone else to try) something that maybe impossible, I am just wondering if a Wayfinder guru can tell me if it is possible to create a horizontal sub menu that replicates the functionality seen here under the top graphic when selecting any of the tab items:

    http://www.idera.com/Content/Home.aspx

    For example if you select the ’TOOLS for SQL Server’ tab where you see selections on the left:
    perfomance monitoring
    backup and recovery
    security and auditing
    etc

    Floating over these selections changes the menu options on the right.

    I am using Evolution 1.0.4

    Thanks in advance

        Thanks for that link and I reviewed all the samples there. But, I cannot see anything related to the functionality on the sample page I gave.

        I am not referring to the menu panel above the three coumns/boxes on the page. See attached image.

        If I hover over a selection on the left side the panel to the right then stays available when I move my cursor off the side selection.

        Thanks for any further information

          If you’re not going to re-use the functionality on other pages, is there any point in doing it in Wayfinder?

          It looks like a feature stack for the home page, that takes selected entries from the site content and promotes them up. They’ve done it with a list and javascript mouseovers to reveal a series of tables on the right. Wayfinder or ditto could probably populate the relevant sections as multiple calls, but I’d still be tempted to build that separately.
