I am referring to www.scopex.co.za
The screenshots attached show the 2018 has the menu listed but not for 2019.

I cannot find the option to display the menu in the first column such as "text" or "gallery" which I have used in the second column.

Will appreciate any guidance you can offer.

Thank you Andre. But cant get it.

Attached is Page Creation for a level under ScopeX 2019 (which has been created by WebSite X5 Evo 2021.5.2) and it shows the Menu Object on the right as available. But I cannot click and drag it to the left column which has the Menu Object on similar pages created under Evolution 12.

The columns that can be seen to the left and right of the text object in your image cannot be filled with objects. These are intended for the function "Extend", with which one object in one line can be extended over the complete visible width of the browser window. If you want to display the menu object on this page, you have to add another column and insert the object there.

Make the text object smaller (move it to row 1 or create an extra row with button on top)

Many thanks, Andre and Franz-Josef. However, the change I made still does not match the existing format.

I created a test new Level and 3 Test Pages using the Menu in the left column which does not show only the pages under the level (like it does under ScopeX 2018 on www.scopex.co.za) but all the main tabs.

Screenshots attached. 

PS: looks like one can only attach one file per note?

Ierika,
I have trouble to understand what you mean exactly, did you make the original website yourself or did someone else did this?

If you want your website the same as www.scopex.co.za

then set the menu object in the template of the header (step2 -> template content)

On your main page make it like so: (it is not an exact copy, just an example):

so the text blocks and link blocks and picture galery are at the midle. pictures on the side with picture objects

Hi Andre, yip I did the website www.scopex.co.za.

Let me try and describe an example of the issue again.  When you go to the site note the difference on the left side of the page when you click on :

Previous Events> 2019>Event Summary and when you click on Previous Events>2018>Event Summary

For Previous Events> 2019>Event Summary there is no list of pages (on the left side of the page) of available pages under Previous Events>2019.  But for Previous Events>2018>Event Summary there is menu list on the left.  It would be good to have all the years showing the same interface.

All 2019 detail was created under Website X5 Evo and all detail for previous years on the website was created under Evolution 12.  I do not want to fiddle with detail of previous years. I just want 2019 detail to be presented the same as the previous years.

If a mission I will just have to leave it as it is at the moment.

Have you refreshed your browser with CTRL-F5 before checking the side online?
There can be a clitch in the browser history that your webbrowser might use.......

Hi Andre, sorry I didnt explain properly. You need to click on Event Summary for both years and then look at the difference between the pages on the left side - 2018 show the menu and 2019 does not.

Kind regards

If your page looks like the one in your picture, you need to insert a column to the left of the text object. You insert the Object menu in this column. Double-click the Menu Object to open the settings window, in which you will find all the necessary options in the Main section. Select the level you want to create the menu from: use the button to display the sitemap, select the desired level and confirm your choice.

Many thanks to all. I have resolved the issue further to the guidance given: copied/pasted pages under the 2018 level, moved it to the 2019 level, adjusted the Object menu's in the pages to 2019 level and updated pages accordingly.

Apologies for wasting your time with this.

Kind regards
