State-Based Navigation

State-Based Navigation

Purpose

Create automatic horizontal or vertical navigation based on the values of a State.

Description

A state-based navigation creates a set of links that switch between the various values of a state. This is commonly used to create the tabs for a tabbed panel.

You cannot switch between horizontal and vertical orientations, you will need to drag a new navigation component from the Palette and configure it to match the old one.

Tip: The link representing the state’s current value is referred to as the “active” link. You can style it to look different from the others using the Active mode button in the toolbar of the Appearance section of the Inspector.
