6.2.2 Navigation


The navigation scheme consists of gel tabs that correspond to the front panel top-level menu
selections. When the mouse is dragged over a tab, it gets highlighted with a rollover effect and a
sub-level of selections is revealed. These typically correspond to the front panel sub-menus, but
some areas have been combined.

Below the navigation menus, a content page will show the current control scope. This will be the
last user selected control page. At the top of the page, breadcrumb links remind the user how the
page is selected.

The menu works as follows:

Mousing over a global navigation link causes the corresponding subglobal division to be
revealed and all other subglobal divisions to be hidden.

Mousing off a subglobal menu link (outside a specified region x and y pixels from the top of
the page), causes all subglobal divisions to be hidden.

The position of the mouse is continuously being monitored.


Thus, we have a show-hide layer submenu effect.
