Fluentui: New component: Horizontal multilevel menu/nav/navbar

[hamedy]

Wondering if there are any components for rendering a horizontal top menu with possibility of having links on root elements and a chevron button to expand submenu items. Like if Nav component had a horizontal layout option.

If not, I wonder if there's a reason for it like if you think it's bad practice or something. We need this functionality for many of our customers and I wanted to ask here before I code something myself.

Thanks,
Hamed

Hey @hamedy thanks for opening an issue! We actually don't have a control like this yet, but I'll add this to the backlog to kick off a discussion.

@hamedy - do you have a UX design for what you are looking for here? It seems to me what you needed here is CommandBar. An example here

Imagine if in your CommandBar example, New was a link itself but also had submenuitems. An example would be in an Intranet top navigation, you'd have Management as a link to a overview page and then items under it which would take you to pages for different departments of Management. Right now Fabric has no component for this. You can't have a link at the top level with sub items which are also links.

It would need also something like Nav's selectedKey. I am trying to do top-level menu (without submenus) as CommandBar, but missing selectedKey creates little problems
