What InfoView Pages Look Like

InfoView pages have three parts:

• The page contents
• The topbar
• The navigation bar

The page contents

The page contents occupy the largest frame in the browser window, and are the part which most visibly changes as you navigate from page to page.

InfoView document lists, and all the interfaces which permit you to view and act on documents are displayed in this part of the browser window.

The topbar

The topbar running across the top of the page changes according to the page's contents:

• If the page's contents include a document list, the topbar is a contextual toolbar containing links which allow you to upload documents, delete them, search for them, or refresh the document list.

  

• If a document is open, the topbar contains links allowing you to act on the open document.

  

• Otherwise, the topbar can simply be a graphical header.

The navigation bar

The navigation bar on the left side of the InfoView page remains constant no matter what page you open. The links it contains are determined by your user profile which is set by your system administrator.  Tip: You can customize the navigation bar by inserting a picture at the top of it. For instructions on how to do this, see Setting a picture. Depending on the access rights you've been accorded by the BusinessObjects supervisor, the navigation bar lets you access up to three different document catalogs: The Corporate Documents Page The Personal Documents Page The Inbox Documents Page

Depending on your user rights, Create Documents may appear in the navigation bar. This option allows you to create documents in WebIntelligence and/or BusinessObjects. Refer to Selecting the type of documents you want to create for information about setting the options for creating documents. The navigation bar also gives you access to other InfoView pages:

• The Welcome Page or MyInfoView Page
• The Search Page
• The Options Page
• The Help Page

Note: For information about creating documents with WebIntelligence, see the printed WebIntelligence User's Guide or the WebIntelligence On-line User's Help. For information about creating a BusinessObjects report, refer to the BusinessObjects User's Guide.
