Anatomy

Introduction to zones

The secondary navigation is divided into three zones where content can be placed. Each zone may include custom content and elements in certain zones will collapse or become hidden completely as breakpoints get smaller. It is not required to use all three zones.

  • Zone 1 - Includes primary elements that are representative of the experience or series of pages
  • Zone 2 - Includes navigation elements like menus and links
  • Zone 3 - Includes secondary elements that provide additional actions

Helpful tip

Content in Zone 1 should be linked and direct visitors to the main page of the experience when selected.

Zones on small breakpoints

On small breakpoints, navigation elements in Zone 2 will collapse into an accordion within a menu. Content in Zone 3 will either be positioned below the accordion or be hidden completely.
