More from OpenForce 07 - The upcoming DNN Menu V2

Last day of OpenForce 07 today and I have just come out of Peter Schotman's session on menu controls for DNN skins. Although I don't do much skinning, it was still interesting to hear from an experienced skinner an overview of the range of menus available for DNN as well as the features, pro's and cons of each.

Of special interest to skin designers was learning about the capabilities of the upcoming DNN Menu version 2 (dnn:NAV 2.0). This menu is being developed by Jon Henning and is currently in beta stage - testers are encourages to get involved to help speed up the release.

Cool features include the ability to use different colors for each parent tab, to apply a background image to each group of child tabs, as wellas a number of cool animations.
