Vivaldi provides a centralized Menu Designer to manage top-level navigation, nested dropdowns, and role-based access. When nesting menu items, ensure that assigned user roles have permission to view both the parent item and its associated children.
Using the Menu Designer
1Open Menu Designer: Navigate to Menus > Menu Designer in the top application navigation bar.
2Add a Menu Item: Click Add from the left-hand panel to create a new top-level or child item.
3Set Display Caption: Enter the label text as it should appear in the navigation bar.
4Define Hierarchy: Keep the Parent setting as (none) for top-level menu categories, or select an existing parent item to create a dropdown child.
5Set Destination Target: Enter a custom URL or click the Wizard button to link directly to an existing Vivaldi form.
6Enable Child Display: For parent categories with dropdown children, set Show Children to Yes.
7Inspect Child Relationships: Click any left-hand menu item to review all configured sub-items in the right-hand panel.
8Configure Nested Submenus: Click Drill to focus on a specific sub-item and construct multi-level nested tiers beneath it.
Important Security Notice
Granting a role access to a menu item provides the navigation link only. Access to underlying forms is controlled separately through Form Permissions. Users without form-level authorization will see an access denied notice upon clicking the link.
Advanced Options: Dynamic Title Overrides
Override the default form title in the navigation target URL by appending the titleoverride parameter:
