This step enables you to specify the display on the side-label, drop-down list, or tab navigation of the dashboard. Navigation targets enable you to move through all predefined views of a dashboard created with Dashboard Studio.
A flat navigation structure (identical on every page) is the easiest for end users to follow. However, a hierarchy of navigation targets can be built by enabling multiple targets to be available for each frame. Use of a hierarchy enables you to accommodate more targets in a dashboard.
Note:
The navigation step includes only the frames that do not contain grouped tabs for navigation. If all frames include navigational grouped tabs, then Step 5 is blank. See Group Tabs Component.
No limit exists as to the number of sections that can be created; however, a limit exists as to the number of targets that can be added to a frame.
A dashboard that contains many sections may become cumbersome. Consider dividing such a dashboard into two or more dashboards that are linked through the Dashboard Studio Related Document feature. See Opening Related Documents.
