Keeping TOC in Top Nav output open in SmartPhone App

Post by mperaro »

Hi,

I have created a Top Nav help system that links into our mobile phone application. Is there anyway to keep the TOC visible? Our users are commenting that they have to keep going back to the hamburg icon.

Or can a forward and back button be built into the output? I have looked and searched forum, maybe I am just missing this.

Looking for some way to have what is in the TOC stay easily accessible.

Viewable via Web, the TOC stays visible on the left side of the output.

Thanks,

Mary

The menu turns to the hamburger icon when you're looking at the help in the tablet and mobile mediums.

So if you don't want it to switch to the tablet/mobile mediums, then change your Tablet and Mobile breakpoints in the target Skin tab, and set them to a much lower value (like 200px).

But test it out, as your full top nav menu may not be very usable at small screen sizes - the hamburger menu in responsive tablet/mobile modes is there for a reason.

Where do you find the Tablet/Mobile breakpoints in the Skin please Dave :?:

Apologies for being so thick - I am viewing the Skin and cannot see an entry named breakpoint :(

Do you mean here :?:

Not the skin - the Skin tab in the target.
