Editing Navigation Bar Lists

Since a navigation bar is a list, you create and edit in the same way as any other list.

You can access navigation bars in Shared Components in the Navigation region in two ways:

  • Select the application and then click Shared Components. Under the Navigation region, select Navigation Bar List.

  • Select the application and then click Shared Components. Under the Navigation region, select Lists.

Once you select the navigation bar list, you edit it as you would any other list.
