Are there any plans in the future to have the StaticDisplayLevels property that the asp:Menu has?

Hi Wade,

I know where you come from. :) Unfortuntely we don't have any such plan yet. The reason that we initially dropped this idea is because our menu item is very powerful --- and rather complicate. We have many properties such as width, padding, margins on a menu item and they would easily conflict with parent item settings if we display them the same way as ASP.NET's StaticDisplayLevels, working all those out will not only make it difficult for us to implement, but also difficult for user to understand how it works and to be usable/useful. As such we have only two more specific solutions: one is the slide menu, with only 2 levels static items; one is the treeview, which allows unlimited "static items" but it does not allow "right icon" as a menu item would.

Thanks
