What exactly is a sliding menu? A menu that you slide (like unlocking an iphone)? A menu that slides into place? Something else?

Re: how to design a sliding menu in a jpanel
That's a collection of several Components, mostly JButtons with icons. You could put them in a JPanel (and put that JPanel in a JSplitPane), or you could try using a menu with icons instead. But if you're looking for a Component that has this already done for you, you're probably out of luck. You're going to have to make your own.
