While working for one of the customers in Netherlands I had to create a page template where they wanted to maximize the page content area. So I kind of mixed the Oracle Dynamic Tabs Shell and Tablet first layout to come up with "Dynamic Tabs Shell with Panel Drawer". Which looks, something like this : This layout has all features and behavior like Oracle Dynamic Tabs Shell, only the menu area is in a PanelDrawer. The menu area and the main content area are in a PanelGridLayout. Users can still customize the global area, logo, branding title etc. features as usual, extra feature added is an attribute : "menuShortDesc" : the mouse over text for menu item. This has a default value "Menu". This template can be build and included as a ADF Library JAR in your project. Below is the link to the Github repository, you can also find a sample application which is using this template. https://github.com/sohamda/DynTabWithPanelDrawer
