Spotlighting page groupings and collections in navigation view
Spotlighting a navigation view is a versatile alternative to centering it. Spotlighting lets you focus on specific pages without removing other pages from the view. You can also spotlight collections in navigation views, where file status information is useful. You can spotlight these types of page groupings: - Family spotlights a selected page, its parent page, and its children.
- Incoming spotlights any page containing the source of a link to the selected page.
- Outgoing spotlights any page containing the destination of a link from the selected page.
- Pending spotlights all pending links in the site. (See Checking and resolving pending links.)
- Collection spotlights all pages in the site in a selected collection of pages. (See Creating and using collections in navigation or links view.)
Pending links appear as arrows and their default color is red. A. Pending links B. Hierarchy structure
