Step 2: Panel groups

Panels are accessible in the Desktop through a 2 levels menu bar in the page header.

The first level is the panel group (also called category), the second level is the panel.

A new panel group can be defined in application.xml with the rootgroup and domaingroup components, e.g.:

<domaingroup name="examples” catalog="example-basic-app::misc" />

A catalog must be specified for the menu label string (the catalog key is the group name, “examples” in the code snippet).

Each panel must point to an existing panel group.
