After the feature roll-out is complete, you will notice that the “blue navigation bar” on the left-hand side of your screen has changed. Other than the obvious aesthetic change, there are also a few functional changes to note.
- We have included a “My Workspace” menu item that permanently lives in the top of the new menu bar, even when you are not on any of the workspace pages. This will allow you to easily access your workspace items—such as My Elements, My Initiatives, and My Tasks—far quicker than before.
- The new menu bar makes switching between a grid view and a list view even simpler, allowing you to visualise your matrix in a way that works for you.
- If you need a clutter-free work area, you can now easily hide additional or, in some cases, unused menu items. It is important to note that once you add content to a grid, these menu items will automatically be shown again.
- For a distraction-free experience, you can collapse the menu bar and still maintain full functionality without having to re-expand. Simply hover your mouse over each item and interact as normal.
- Navigating the Element or Initiative overviews is even easier now. Using the dedicated navigation items, you can easily switch between an item detail page and the full overview.
- And using the “Go to grid” or “Go to element” menu item allows you to easily navigate between linked grids or elements. If an element or an initiative is linked only to one item, you only have to click on the “Go To Grid” or “Go To Element” button, and you’ll be taken back to the appropriate page automatically.
- The same distraction-free function can be used in any of the element or initiative overviews. Simply click “show less” to hide unused items.
The biggest change to the navigation system is the ability to customise the colour of the navigation bar to better suit your brand’s identity. As the administrator of a Scientrix system, you now have the option to choose a colour from your predefined colour palette in your system’s “general parameters”. You can also customise your system’s logo to better suit your newly selected colour.
