Navigator is a resizable and collapsible pane of Fred4 where you retrieve content to review it, to open it for editing, or to drag it onto your page in order to enrich it. Every main tab has one or more independent navigators.

Use the Pages navigator to review/open pages. Use Articles navigator to retrieve articles and drag them onto a page. Use the Content navigator to retrieve any content to enrich your articles. Use the Libraries navigator to review predefined objects and drag them on page, speeding up the layout work, and the Masters navigator to edit and assign master pages. Use the Clipboard navigator for the temporary collections.
