About Nav file elements
When you create a new nav file, in addition to the xml declaration, the file includes two default elements, as listed and shown below.
- <nav> element
a single opening and closing set of <nav> elements hold all the nodes in the tree
- <node> element
the default <node> element includes an ORD path that points to the station root directory:
ord='station:|slot:/'
You can edit these nodes directly in the Text Editor or you can use the tools provided in the Nav File Editor.
