The default confluence themes offer tabs with things like view, edit, attachments etc. I would like to implement this interface using builder. Can this be done? I can't modify the content of the content panel so I assume all of these things would have to be added into one of the header panels. I could create this aesthetically but don't know how I would get the tabs to activate (ie, when you click edit, the edit tab activates).

And a note on velocity, I understand how it works and all. But how am I supposed to know which objects or methods to reference? Pour over the entire source code?

I had to move things around to get it to be more similar to the basic confluence theme. I haven't needed to goto the level of velocity, but it does require familiarity with CSS and some very nested wiki markup.

I did find the same issue, the issue in the sample is that the view tab connects to the menuitem alias of normalView, which doesn't work. However, pageView does and is what I'm using now. It seems to work with News as well so I'm unsure of the discrepancy and haven't checked their bug system closely to see if this is known problem.
I found the information I needed on Links - Quick+Reference.
We are still evaluating the Theme Builder plugin so the example isn't 100% complete yet. Primarily needs customization of menu options and additional CSS adjustments.

Maybe this will help you. Here's the menu config im running right now. Everything stripped out of the edit menu (for convenience) and this placed into the view menu.

The provided code appears to be the items from the Menus tab in the layout editor.

Thanks for the help, the issue is more with coming up with consensus on how the menus should utimately look. Your example is very different from the default, which I suspect the userbase would want something similar. The CSS issues are mostly cosmetic, getting everything to look correct and align well. Just a matter of finding the time to assess and make the changes.
