so there is a way. I am re-reading the Navigation.html and there is:
{
name = Movie;
action = "session.navController.listMovieAction";
/*
displayName takes precedence over name for display purposes.
If no displayName is provided, name is used. Localized keys are
"Nav.<displayName>" and "Nav.<name>" respectively.
*/
displayName = "MovieKey";
children = ("CreateMovie");
/*
Oddly, instead of specifying an array for childrenConditions,
a comma separated string of keyPaths is expected instead. All
children conditions must be met or no children will be shown
for the menu item.
*/
childrenConditions =
"session.user.hasAdministratorAccessLevel,session.user.hasEmployeeAccessLevel";
}
so why is it that is sometimes is so simple:
childrenConditions = "isSelected";
gives me exactly what I want
