Tab Models

Objective

You want to change something in the navigator section of the page. For example, you want to add or remove tabs in the navigator.

Background

The tabs rendered in navigator are nothing but actions in action lists just like any other actions in the system. Adding tabs and tabs under them is very much like adding any other action into the system, but there are some additional special considerations.

Scope/Applicability/Assumptions

• Assume you need to add a new tab to the main navigation of the navigator.

• Assume you need to remove an existing tab from the main navigation of the navigator.

• Assume you need to add/remove links in the second level navigation.

Solution

Create new actions, an action model, and JSPs for the tab and sub tabs to be added.

Prerequisite knowledge

To achieve this objective, you need to have an understanding of the following:

• Basic development involving CSS, JSP and XML.

• The actions framework in the Windchill client architecture. For more information see, Action Framework for Windchill Client Architecture

The management of RBINFO file customizations. For more information see, Localizing Actions and Action Models.

Solution Elements

codebase\config\actions\navigation-actions.xml	XML	This file contains the action definitions for the actions that represent the tabs and sub tabs in the Windchill system
