Menu Navigation
Mar 21, 2013

Hi All,
Just a quick question.
My colleague is working on a module where the client has requested the slide titles to be removed from the menu side bar but the scene titles to remain. They also want the user to be able to click on any of these scene titles to navigate. So far we haven't managed to navigate using just the scene titles.
We've checked the player settings and all seems well, so we're a little stuck.
Any/all help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Harri

Perhaps a workaround would be to rename the first slide of each scene with the scene title, and then just include those slides on the menu. If you rename in the menu, it doesn't rename the actual slide, just the listing in the menu. Then your menu will list the scene names, and each will link to the first slide in that scene.
Hi Harri,
you can pretty much do whatever you want with the menu.
Click on the player icon (publish)
There you'll see "Menu" (Data)
Click on the item you want to delete and click on the red cross, don't worry, the slides will not be deleted, they're just removed from the menu.
Once you've cleaned the menu, by using the little yellow folder you can import menu items from you presentation
Once they are imported you can rename them to whatever you want..

Thank you both.
Any ideas why we ran into this problem in the first place so we can avoid it in the future?
Hi Harri
Each time a slide is created/imported it is autmatically added to the menu. So if your client wants to have a nice and clean menu, you need top clean it before final delivery

If all you have on the menu are scene titles, clicking doesn't take you anywhere. If you delete all the slide titles and leave the scene titles, there is no navigation. You need to click on a slide title to get to a slide. But you can rename those slides anything that you client wants, and include only those that are wanted.
Awesome, Meryem, thank you.
Hi,
Is it possible to choose your own font, fontsize and f.e underlining or bold in de menu-titles?
Hi Leo,
Happy to help here!
To change the font and font size for the player menu, you will want to navigate to:
