Consider a simple case in which the left-hand frame contains a navigation bar with three buttons. The three buttons display three different pages of information in the main window. (Navigation bars require NN3+ or IE4+ on both Macintosh and Windows.)

Although you can create a navigation bar by applying the Set Nav Bar Image behavior manually, creating one by using Insert Interactive Images Navigation Bar is easier (see Figure 2-13). You can modify an existing navigation bar by using Modify Navigation Bar.

These three actions are attached to each button in the navigation bar and the buttons work in concert. Clicking any button in a navigation bar displays its Down image and causes the other buttons to revert to their Up images.
