The top navigation bar, located at the top of Innoslate, is a constant fixture throughout the application. No matter where you navigate within Innoslate, the navigation bar will remain fixed at the top of your browser window. This bar is your primary means of navigating around Innoslate.
Items on the Left
MENU Dropdown
The 'MENU' dropdown is the leftmost feature of the top navigation bar as shown below:
This dropdown contains menu items with the links necessary to successfully navigate around Innoslate. The links under the dropdown are arranged into three sections: General, Tools, and Quick Links.
Under the “General” section are navigational links to your project's Charts View, Compilations View, Dashboard, Database View, Diagrams View, Documents View, and Test Center.
Under the “Tools” section are navigational links to tools within Innoslate: DoDAF Dashboard, Import Analyzer, Schema Editor, Intelligence Dashboard, GitHub Dashboard, and Project Management Dashboard.
Under the “Quick Links” section, the Documentation link opens Innoslate’s Help Center website, the Webinars link opens Innoslate’s YouTube Webinars, the Features link opens Innoslate.com’s Features page, and the Contact Us link opens Innoslate.com’s Contact Us page.

Pinned Links
The next set of button links to the immediate right of the 'MENU' dropdown are items which have been "pinned" to the top navigation bar. By default, four items are pinned to the bar: Dashboard, Database, Diagrams, and Documents. Simply click the button with the name of the view or tool to be automatically navigated to that destination. We recommend pinning the features of Innoslate you use most often for easy one-click access.
Items on the Right
Chat Sidebar Button
Clicking the 'Chat Sidebar' button toggles the collaboration sidebar open and closed. You will find the collaboration sidebar fixed to the right of your browser window when it is open. The sidebar allows you to see which users are currently online collaborating on the same project, and gives you access to chat with those users in a group or point-to-point.
Share Button
Clicking the 'Share' button opens the 'Share Project' dialog to allow sharing of the current project with other users on your Innoslate organization.
Notifications Button
Clicking the 'Notifications' button opens the 'Notifications' dropdown menu, allowing the user to view recent changes made by other users on the current project.
Switch Projects Dropdown
The 'Switch Projects' dropdown contains links to switch Innoslate to any of your existing projects, as well as a "Create a New Project" link, which opens the 'Create a New Project' dialog box, and a "Manage Projects" link that directs you to the 'Manage Projects' page.
Project Preferences Dropdown
The 'Project Preferences' dropdown contains a link to the Project Banner modal where you may add, edit, or remove your project banner(s). If you are a project owner, you may also have an option to 'Clear Sessions' which forces a refresh of active users in the various collaboration features in Innoslate.
User Dropdown
The 'User' dropdown is the right-most menu item of the top navigation bar. This dropdown is displayed as a green circle with your first initial. Clicking this dropdown allows you to access/update your Innoslate user account profile, change your password, configure two-factor authentication, or sign out of Innoslate.
