User Definable Navigation

This Navigation window can be used to create a customized menu and customized Keyboard shortcuts to fit each user's needs. Once the Menu is customized the user can set it to display first, every time the user logs into GSelector. Use the Startup options in the User Definable Navigation Settings window to set the menu to Show User Definable Navigation on startup.

Navigation Bread Crumbs

The Navigation bread crumbs at the upper top left corner enable the user to easily go back to the previous menu. Click a crumb to navigate back to that position in the menu.

Main Menu Action pane

The Main Menu displays the menu items added in the Navigation Template as buttons. The buttons have the assigned Name with the Description at the bottom of the window. Clicking the button allows the user to either move to the next level of menu items or fire the action. The buttons also have a number; this number corresponds to a numbered Function key and Number key on the keyboard. For example: the F1 or 1 key will open the Library Management menu, pressing F1 or 1 again will open the Add Song window. The first letter of the Name can also be used, however if there are two buttons that start with the same letter the first button in sequence will be the action that is executed.

When the Add Song window is closed the User Definable Navigation window can be found hidden to the left of the main window visible only by a Navigation tab.

The default menu displayed when pressing the F12 function key is the Home menu. These buttons are all the menu items listed just under Home in the Name column of the Navigation Template.

 

Show on Startup

The Show on Startup is selected by default when the Show User Definable Navigation is selected in the Startup options of the User Definable Navigation Settings window. Deselect the Show on Startup option to stop the User Definable Navigation menu from showing when GSelector starts.

 

Dock/Hide the User Definable Navigation window

Once the user selects a button with an action in the User Definable Navigation window will hide itself to the left of the main window visible only by a Navigation tab. Click the Navigation tab to show the User Definable Navigation window. Select a location in the Main application and the Navigation window will auto hide again.

The pin in the upper right corner of the Navigation window can be used to Dock the Navigation window to the left side of the main window.

Click the pin again to set the Navigation window to Auto Hide.
