Tested on local 11.x that matches with the Sakai 11.3 RC01. Works fine!

There's no properties to alter the text for "Quick Links" but it's easier now in Sakai 11 to alter text for anything in the UI because of the message bundle manager. And yeah, from what I saw it should match up with the skin colors.

I created and fixed the issue you mention (of the empty bar appearing) on

If you have no QuickLinks, it should not show up in the UI. This is currently broken. You can replicate on https://trunk-mysql.nightly.sakaiproject.org/portal/ login as admin/admin

quick links should look like the "sites" menu. we did some work so it will inherit from the current skin.

Are there properties to alter the text "Quick Links" for something else - if not that's fine, I'm just asking while things are still being worked out. I'm also curious to know what colors (css properties) the new menu will inherit or if they can be specified - that is - are there specific properties for the quick links menu for color? Our current Sakai 10.2 implementation looks like this - and it works rather well. The menu is called "Get Help" and Longsight helped us specify the color and placement.
