NAVIGATOR

As with standard studio equipment the Space Station uses Function Buttons to activate areas within the software known as Zones. Each of these Zones is colour coded and contains several different sub areas known as Levels. Level's are accessed by using the standard method of paging form one Level to the next within an active Zone, just like directory tree's. There is how ever a draw back with this type of interface, in that moving from the last Level of a Zone, to last of another, becomes very tedious. The standard improvement adopted by software developers, is to use drop down list's that drop down other list's and so on, surely to improve things, things must become quicker and more accessible.

Ship Navigator
The least amount of clicks has become the Space Station developers guide, and due to this the Navigator was designed. Every Level within the software can be viewed together in a simple map style layout using one click. Current location is displayed by a red highlight, and any Level can be Jumped to using one click. Up to four of these Jumps can be stored and activated using Quick Keys.

Help Navigator
When Help is needed and its bad enough to actually read some thing, then and only then do you actually experience the endless cycle of nonsense, commonly known as Help Files. The Space Stations Help Navigator will only give access to files relating to the active Level. All of Function Headings and the individual Functions within each Level can be listed by using the Search Navigator. All of the Help Files have been written by the Interface Design Manager, if you experience difficulty using any part of the Space Station do not hesitate to Email For a full listing on the Navagator functions, refer to the online manual or download it in PDF or HTML formats.
