Diagram Navigator

Diagram Navigator

Prior to Evolve 2018, diagram hierarchy navigation was performed purely through the diagram drill downs, and an in-page bread crumb trail. This trail was only integrated into the page, and could cause a little confusion with regards to the outer page content. Since the 2018 release a new diagram navigation has been added, that offers a much more visual experience.

As with Smart Crumbs, the Diagram Navigator feature is always enabled, and available to all users.
You will see this new feature as a simple icon above any diagram in your site. See below:

When viewing a diagram, pressing the new icon will launch the Diagram Navigator

The navigator will show the current diagram at the centre, with arrow-nodes representing each shape on the diagram, that drills down to child diagrams.

Selecting one of these arrow-nodes will highlight the single/multiple child diagrams that 'explode' from this shape.

Selecting the child diagram shapes, will display a diagram preview at the top left of the Navigator

Double-clicking on a child shape will drill down and re-center the Navigator around that diagram.

Clicking on the "open" icon on any of the diagram shapes, will open the diagram fully.

Both Smart crumbs and Diagram navigator are available, provided you are running version 2018 or above.
