Hi Holger,
Below is the view/Form (mainMenuExample:MyHomePageTab) that I am
looking for. Since I am new to the composer so it took time to figure it
out. Using the editor under the ui:prototype, the content that gets
displayed on the right hand side pane can be handled.
Now, we have another requirement and it is to add a link (an anchor
tag<a>) in the home page tabs menu and that link should open a new tab/page
in the same browser. Could you please help us on this?
Thanks,
sanjeev
