You need to separate your main layout into two parts; the first contains the menu, the second contains the actual content (often referred to as ‘views’ in Vaadin). When a user selects an item, the event handler of the menu should instruct the main layout to replace the old content with the new content, with e.g. the replaceComponent() method.

There are many implementations for this out on the 'net, since many Vaadin applications use this pattern. You should be able to adapt one of these for your case.

Good luck! :slight_smile:

Thanks-_- dude ,But i need some clarification if we use replace component it means that it make old window is completely destroyed ,that mean we are not making it hiding in back end , can you explain me little clear due to memory issue i m asking this question:mellow:

Programming with Vaadin is like programming with any Java library; if you keep a reference to the old content then it is fully re-usable and stored in-memory. I you don’t need the old content, just remove all references to it and it will be garbage collected.

No need to worry about memory consumption, though… a typical Vaadin application requires between 20 and 100 kBytes of memory per application (plus all your own data).

Was the sampler example I pointed out for you yesterday in your

 somehow incompatible for what you need? If so, could you elaborate on what kind of sub menu you meant?
