  • There is no supported (built-in) way in LeptonX Angular SideMenu layout to move the main toolbar/user-profile menu into the topbar while keeping the main navigation in the left sidebar.
    In the SideMenu layout, the toolbar is intentionally rendered in the right vertical strip (the lpx-toolbar-container area). The theme currently doesn’t expose an option/provider/panel directive to re-place that projection point into the topbar for the SideMenu layout.

  • What you can do instead (supported approach): create your own layout component and replace the default one.
    This is the recommended way when you need a “hybrid” layout arrangement that LeptonX doesn’t support out of the box. In ABP Angular, layout/theme pieces are designed to be replaceable at the component level.

    Practically, this means:

    1. Create a custom layout component (you can copy/adapt the LeptonX SideMenu layout template).
    2. Modify its template so your lpx-toolbar-panel content is projected into a container in the topbar (top-right), and keep the navbar/menu projection in the left sidebar.
    3. Register your custom component via ABP Angular component replacement.

  • Roadmap / future support: According to ABP’s previous support response on the same request, this hybrid layout was not supported at that time, and multiple layout types were planned for the future, but there’s no confirmed/definitive configuration you can enable today for this exact hybrid placement. So: not currently supported; may be considered in future.

  Hi,

  You're right, there is no option or panel directive for this. In the side-menu layout the toolbar always lands in the right-hand strip, and neither provideSideMenuLayout() nor withLpxSideMenuOptions() can change where it goes.

  The way to get what you want is to keep the side-menu layout as it is and restyle .lpx-toolbar-container so it sits in the topbar instead of the right strip. Add this to your global styles.scss:

  

  

  @media only screen and (min-width: 768px) {
    .lpx-topbar {
      min-height: 48px;
      align-items: center;
    }
  
    .lpx-toolbar-container {
      position: absolute;
      top: 0;
      right: 0;
      bottom: auto;
      width: auto;
      min-height: 0;
      height: 48px;
      display: flex;
      align-items: center;
      gap: 1rem;
      padding: 0 1.25rem;
      background-color: transparent;
    }
  
    .lpx-toolbar-container .lpx-toolbar,
    .lpx-toolbar-container .lpx-settings {
      position: static;
      width: auto;
      min-width: 0;
    }
  
    .lpx-toolbar-container nav.lpx-toolbar > .lpx-nav-menu,
    .lpx-toolbar-container .lpx-settings {
      display: flex;
      flex-direction: row;
      align-items: center;
      gap: 1rem;
      margin: 0;
      padding: 0;
    }
  
    .lpx-toolbar-container .lpx-user-menu {
      margin: 0;
    }
  
    .lpx-toolbar-container .lpx-user-menu .lpx-menu-item-link {
      display: flex;
      align-items: center;
      gap: 0.5rem;
      height: auto;
      width: auto;
      padding: 0;
    }
  
    .lpx-toolbar-container .lpx-user-menu .lpx-menu-item-link .lpx-menu-item-text {
      display: inline;
      width: auto !important;
      margin: 0;
      font-size: 0.875rem;
      line-height: 1;
      text-align: left;
    }
  
    .lpx-toolbar-container .lpx-user-menu .lpx-avatar .lpx-avatar-img,
    .lpx-toolbar-container .lpx-user-menu .lpx-avatar .lpx-avatar-icon {
      width: 28px;
      height: 28px;
      margin: 0;
      font-size: 15px;
      border-radius: 28px;
    }
  
    .lpx-toolbar-container .lpx-settings .setting-icon {
      height: auto;
      font-size: 1rem;
    }
  
    .lpx-toolbar-container .lpx-context-menu {
      top: 100%;
      right: 1.25rem;
      bottom: auto;
      margin: 0;
    }
  
    .lpx-content-container {
      margin-right: 0;
    }
  
    .lpx-footbar-container {
      right: 0;
    }
  }
  

  The avatar, the user context menu, the language and settings dropdowns all keep working — they are the same components, just laid out horizontally. A few notes on the rules, since most of them exist to undo something:

  • The default topbar is shorter than the toolbar row, so .lpx-topbar gets a min-height and centers its children.
  • .lpx-user-menu carries a margin-top, a fixed height: 72px link and a width: 72px !important label, all of it sized for the 72px vertical strip. Leave any of those in and the avatar sits ~10px below the settings icons and pushes the row out of the topbar.
  • The .lpx-nav-menu rules are scoped with nav.lpx-toolbar > on purpose. Drop that part and they also hit the menus inside the dropdowns, which then render as a full-width row.
  • The last two rules give the content area back the 72px that was reserved for the strip.
  • Everything sits in a min-width: 768px query, so the mobile navbar is untouched.

  Tune height, gap and padding to taste. Since this overrides theme CSS, give it a quick look when you upgrade LeptonX.

  On the hybrid layout as a built-in option — there is no plan for it at the moment.

  Thanks
