Navigation - not working

mmalhotra-9265

Hi,

In the template selected, I added Navigation buttons. (The template didn't have navigation feature).

However, they are not visible now.

Could you help rectify the error.

Hi,

Any update? How to add navigation to a template? My trial as attached in the above file didn't seem to work.

You added a Next button with a manual triangle shape pointing to the left and a Back button pointing to the right. These are the opposite orientation of normal navigation. In the future, If you right click on the Insert button, choose stock buttons, and select the Navigation folder, you can find buttons that are in sets of the standard buttons and they are preloaded with the correct action.

Somehow the template graphics was changed to have "Always on Top" selected. So, the footer graphic is covering the new buttons. Normally the template graphic is positioned by the order in the Project Explorer. This way the buttons, which are further down the list, show up on top of the footer. Make this change and you can see your buttons.

@jholland - The option of stock button helps.

Sample file attached.

Good to see your latest attachment has navigation working. Your latest sample uses one of our standard themes, the "Amaranth Grayscale No Nav". Looks like you added some stock buttons for next and previous, good work.

For others reading along, most of our starter themes like this one also have a version with the navigation buttons already built in, so you don't have to insert them yourself. The theme that matches the latest course attachment in this thread, the theme to choose that has navigation buttons included at the title level is "Amaranth Grayscale".
