Getting around: links, Back and the trail

Conform links related records together, so you can follow a chain (an action, to its finding, to the test that raised it, to the unit) without going back to the menu.

What can be clicked

It looks like

It does

A solid button

Does something: save, move, sign off.

A small outlined button with an icon

Takes you to a screen or tool: Checklist, Open board, Test Runner.

A soft teal pill with an icon

Opens one specific record: a unit, control, test, finding, action or checklist. Teal always means "opens that item".

A small blue arrow button on the left of a row

Opens that row's record on its own page.

Placeholder: Teal item links
Teal pills open the record they name.

If it looks clickable, it is. Counts on dashboards, items in calendar strips and rows in lists all take you somewhere. Hover over something to see whether it's clickable: it gets a teal edge and lifts slightly.

Rows: summary or open

  • Click a row to see its summary in the right-hand panel. You stay on the page.

  • Click its blue arrow to open the record's own page.

Back and the trail

At the top of each page:

  • "← Back to …" takes you back to where you actually came from, not just the previous page in the browser.

  • The trail shows the last few pages, for example Board › FND-0003 › Test #41 › Slurry & gases. Click any of them to jump back.

Going back to a board puts the card you'd picked back in the right-hand panel. Choosing something from the left menu starts a new trail.

The trail only covers your current journey. To get back to something you opened an hour ago, use Quick Nav.
