Description

Defines a navigator within a NavigatorControl in a ShellTabItem definition of a main tab. This applies to a structure where the entire navigator code is embedded in the NavigatorControl section.

Members

NameIdentifier.
HeaderThe name as it appears on the navigator label.
GridEnclose other definitions.
ExpanderContains SearchConditionsControl to display search form.
ShellResultViewDisplays results under the search form.
StyleTabStripDisplays commands zone under results.

Remarks

If you expand the <l: NavigatorControl section within Ted4Articles main tab, and then expand the first <TabItem section, you'll see the definition of the navigator named ArticlesTab:

tabitem1

The navigator definition is all enclosed within a sub-grid, that in this case has name ArticlesGrid. The name is not unique: exactly the same code appears under Ted4PubDests main tab in Ted4_TabItems.xml and under Fred4Pages main tab in Fred4_TabItems.xml.

tabitem2

The navigator definition is pretty complex, and contains various sub-parts:

Grid.RowDefinitions

Grid.ColumnDefinitions

Expander

ShellResultView

ShellGridSplitter
