You see, there are lot of ways of navigating across a software. Some of them are</p> <ol> <li>Menus</li> <li>Nested Menus and Context Menus</li> <li>Tabs and Tabs Inside Tabs</li> <li>Keyboard Shortcuts</li> <li>Tool Bars</li> </ol> <p>Right now I cant think of any other way one can navigate across applications. But I bet myself a hundred bucks, there are plenty of them. So you got to think, what will you use for navigation. You choose one of them. Why? what are the advantages? what looks better? which is easier etc etc. You&rsquo;ve gotta think it all out. For example, you see if you are using a menu and only a menu to navigate across an application, you&rsquo;ll need at least 2 mouse clicks to get to some other page, one click on the menu and the other on the menu item that names the page.
