Navigating VTcite
Submitted by Sandy Lathem on Tue, 03/25/2008 - 06:35.
VTcite is easy to navigate. You may move to various features in a number of ways:
- Tabs
- Breadcrumbs
- Side Bar Menus
- Up/Down Links
Tabs
VTcite uses Tabs at the top of your screen to help you move to major features, such as News, Calendar, Forums, Resources, Pure Vermont, and Home.
Breadcrumbs
As you click on Tabs and links (shown in organge), you create a trail of breadcrumbs that appear at the top left corner of your screen. You can click on the breadcrumbs to retrace your steps and return to previous selections. For example:
This example shows that the user started from the home page, then clicked Forums. Under the Tech in Vermont category, the user clicked VITA-Learn Second Life. To go back to Forums or Home, the user would simply click on the word in the breadcrumbs.
Side Bar Menus
The Side Bar can also be useful when navigating. In the Users Guide, for example, the Side Bar displays the organization of the pages in this section. It can be used to move from page to page within the Users' Guide.
Another example of the Side Bar is shown here.
Up/Down Links
When you are working within a feature that has multiple pages, you are able to move up and down by pages within that feature. For example in the Pure Vermont section, you'll notice that the organization of the pages is listed at the bottom of each page. Use the Up link to go the first page, or click on the next link in the list to move to the next page. For example:
