Navigation

It is important you understand the intuitive and user-friendly aspects of navigating the LoopFuse system, before you use it. In this section, you will find information on common navigation techniques used throughout the system.

On-Screen Contextual Help

Contextual help is provided across the entire LoopFuse system. You can access the help content by clicking this icon (Image:Ico_help_callout.gif ) at the top of the content page. You can hide the help content, by clicking the icon again.

Your settings for contextual help are remembered. That is, once you toggle the help system, it will remain in show or hide mode whenever you login.

At the bottom-right of each help window, are links to the LoopFuse message boards and knowledge base. We ask that you visit the message boards frequently for discussions that may affect your use of the system, and best practice talks.

Navigating the Modules

The main navigation structure provided is module-specific. That is, all major sections of the suite are accessible by one-click from the main navigation bar. All modules are identifiable by a generally-used set of icons. Clicking on an icon, while in the system, will take you to the main page for that module.
