Navigator: Display, Select, Filter and Search Items

The Navigator lists all elements of the currently selected content type (for example, “Projects”).

Each Content type has a Root item, which acts as a folder in the Navigator.

Note: Depending on your permissions, the elements you see here, and the information displayed, can vary.

Layout Limitations for Small Screen Devices

Expanded layout is not available due to the lack of horizontal space

The Navigator automatically hides itself after a successful item selection

Display Navigator Items (Tree vs. Flat)

On the Projects and Servers page: The Navigator can display items in either a hierarchical Tree view or as a Flat list:

All items are displayed in a flat list regardless of their position in the hierarchy. However, the item’s path in the hierarchy is displayed in a second line.

The Roles, Users and Tags pages use a flat list only.
