Navigator
The Navigator lists all elements of the currently selected content type. Each Content type has a Root item (which acts as a folder) shown in the Navigator.
Click an element to select it and display further information about it.
Note: Depending on your permissions, the elements you see here, and the information displayed, can vary.
New Item Function
The Root items of the Navigator contain a + button, which is a shortcut to create new items.
The new item will be created in the currently selected level of the hierarchy. (If the content type does not have a hierarchy in the Navigator, then it will be created in the Root folder).
Note: Depending on your permissions, the create function might not be available for you.
Navigator Layouts
The Navigator can switch between three different layouts:
•Single Column
•Hidden
•Expanded
Switch between the layouts using the arrows on the right side of the Navigator.
Expanded Layout
Expanded Layout shows more detailed information in a table format. You can sort the columns to find the information you are looking for.
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
Navigator View Type
The Navigator can display items in Tree view, or as a Flat list:
Tree View
On the Projects and Servers pages, all Navigator items can be displayed in a tree style view according to their position in the hierarchy. Open/close the tree branches by clicking the arrow on the left side of the folders.
Note: The User/group and Roles content types have no tree view, because those content types use no hierarchy.
Flat List
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.
Select/Multi-select/Filter Navigator Items
•Select an element by clicking on it.
•Multi-select: Activate multi-selection by clicking the checkmark icon on the top left of the list
•Filter items using the pop-up. The available quick filters depend on the currently selected content type.
Search Navigator Items
Click the Search icon and enter a text.
Click X to cancel the Search.
Search results are always displayed in a flat list.
On the Projects page, you can search for items by tag as well as text.
See Find Items by Tag.
