Menu Bars

When one enters a management area of Sundial (i.e. "Preferences", "Templating", "Publishing", "Messages", "Add Event"), the primary means of navigation through the area's functions and screens is its menu bar. Menu bars appear as a blue horizontal strip visible at the top of the screen.

The currently selected menu option appears highlighted on the menu bar.

A yellow sub-menu bar appears below the menu bar when a selected menu option offers several sub-functions or screens. Again, the presently selected sub-menu option is highlighted.

Throughout this manual, the means of accessing a given screen or function will be written as follows:

Management Area > Menu Item > Sub-Menu Item

For example, the following:

Event Manager > Publish Event > Log

directs the reader to:

  1. Open the Event Manager management area
  2. Click Publish Event within Event Manager's menu bar
  3. Click Log within the sub-menu that appears.
