About ViewApp custom navigation

The ViewApp Editor includes a set of custom navigation commands to create a navigation model for a ViewApp based on custom navigation items. Each custom navigation item can be assigned one or more pieces of content that appear in a specific pane during runtime.

Custom navigation gives users the ability to view specific types of content associated with navigation items that are not required to replicate the hierarchy of objects shown in the Model view of the Template folder. During runtime, the ViewApp's layout panes auto fill with the associated content when the user selects the custom navigation item.
