Two menu widgets in Asidefirst zone in Orchard CMS

According to design specification I have to add two different menu lists with own Titles on AsideFirst zone in Orchard CMS.

As far as I'm concerned there is no need to create your own zones, it could be done via your own Content Definition and creating your own View for Menu widget. It that correct, can you please share some info about it?

BTW: How do I add my custom View for replacing some widgets? Should I simply add .cshtml file with proper naming?

Download the shape tracing tool, found here: gallery.orchardproject.net/List/Modules/… and use it to inspect your menus to find the correct names for alternate shapes to use. These will be created in your enabled theme.

I believe you can copy the view generated by Shape Tracing into one of your modules and place it in the Views folder, not Views/Parts/.
