NavigationBar

The NavigationBar component is a side panel used to navigate properties of the active component and to control properties.

The NavigationBar component includes several tabs. Clicking tab headers expands internal panels with arbitrary contents. The component does not allow opening several tabs at the same time. Opening a tab closes the previous tab.

Comments

Example

On opening a tab its internal panel is expanded and the tabs below are shifted downward:

If the navigation bar does not have enough space to expand an inner panel, the tabs are hidden starting from the lowermost tab, and a button with a drop-down menu named button appears.
