Slide-out navigation pane

The slide-out navigation pane displays the navigation options for your SDL Application. The navigation pane slides into view when you click the icon in the top left-hand corner of the user interface, and slides in (becomes hidden) after you have selected a navigation option.

SDL provides multiple solutions (SDL Applications) for managing various aspects of your customer experience, For example, there are SDL Applications to group together web content management, media management, translation management, campaign management, targeting, analytics, structured content, social intelligence, and so on. If you are using several SDL Applications, the slide-out navigation pane groups your SDL Applications together so that you can switch seamlessly from one to another.

The slide-out navigation pane has three levels of navigation:
Top area navigation
The top area of the navigation pane contains the most relevant sections of your SDL Application.
Navigation groups
At the same level as the top area navigation, the navigation pane displays one or more navigation groups each representing an SDL Application you have access to.
Navigation entries
Under a navigation group, navigation entries display various starting points for managing content, users and so on in an SDL Application.
