Navigation
The <Navigation> component is the root view container for navigation. It typically functions as the root container of a page and includes a title bar, content area, and toolbar. The content area switches between the home page content (child components of <Navigation>) and non-home page content (child components of <NavDestination>) through routing.
NOTE
This component is supported since API version 8. Updates will be marked with a superscript to indicate their earliest API version.
Child Components
Supported
Since API version 9, it is recommended that this component be used together with the <NavRouter> component.
Since API version 10, it is recommended that this component be used together with the <NavPathStack> component and navDestination attribute.

Attributes
In addition to the universal attributes, the following attributes are supported.
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
title | ResourceStr10+ | CustomBuilder8+ | NavigationCommonTitle9+ | NavigationCustomTitle9+ | Page title. NOTE When the NavigationCustomTitle type is used to set the height, the titleMode attribute does not take effect. When the title string is too long: (1) If no subtitle is set, the string is scaled down, wrapped in two lines, and then clipped with an ellipsis (...); (2) If a subtitle is set, the subtitle is scaled down and then clipped with an ellipsis (...). |
subTitle(deprecated) | string | Subtitle of the page. If this attribute is not set, no subtitle is displayed. This attribute is deprecated since API version 9. You are advised to use title instead. |
menus | Array<NavigationMenuItem> | CustomBuilder | Menu items in the upper right corner of the page. If this attribute is not set, no menu item is displayed. When the value type is Array<NavigationMenuItem>, the menu shows a maximum of three icons in portrait mode and a maximum of five icons in landscape mode, with excess icons (if any) placed under the automatically generated More icon. |
titleMode | NavigationTitleMode | Display mode of the page title bar. Default value: NavigationTitleMode.Free |
toolBar(deprecated) | object | CustomBuilder | Content of the toolbar. If this attribute is not set, no toolbar is displayed. items: all items on the toolbar. NOTE Items are evenly distributed on the toolbar at the bottom. Text and icons are evenly distributed in each content area. If the text is too long, it is scaled down level by level, wrapped in two lines, and then clipped with an ellipsis (...). This API is deprecated since API version 10. You are advised to use toolbarConfiguration instead. |
toolbarConfiguration10+ | Array<ToolbarItem> | CustomBuilder | Content of the toolbar. If this attribute is not set, no toolbar is displayed. NOTE When the value type is Array<[ToolbarItem](#ToolbarItem>, the toolbar exhibits the following features: Items are evenly distributed on the toolbar at the bottom. Text and icons are evenly distributed in each content area. If any item contains overlong text and there are fewer than five items, the following measures are taken: 1. Increase the item's width to accommodate the text until it is as large as the screen width; 2. Scale down the text level by level; 3. Wrap the text in two lines; 4. Clip the text with an ellipsis (...). The toolbar shows a maximum of five icons in portrait mode, with excess icons (if any) placed under the automatically generated More icon. In landscape mode, this attribute must be used together with Array<NavigationMenuItem> of the menus attribute; the toolbar at the bottom is automatically hidden, and all items on the toolbar are moved to the menu in the upper right corner of the screen. When the value type is CustomBuilder, and the toolbar does not exhibit the preceding features except that items are evenly distributed on the toolbar at the bottom. |

NavigationMode9+
Name | Description |
---|---|
Stack | The navigation bar and content area are displayed independently of each other, which are equivalent to two pages. |
Split | The navigation bar and content area are displayed in different columns. The values of navBarWidthRange are represented by [minNavBarWidth,maxNavBarWidth]. 1. When the value of navBarWidth is beyond the value range specified by navBarWidthRange, navBarWidth is set according to the following rules: Value of navBarWidth < Value of minNavBarWidth: The value of navBarWidth is changed to that of minNavBarWidth. Value of navBarWidth > Value of maxNavBarWidth and Result of [Component width - Value of minContentWidth - Divider width (1 vp)] > Value of maxNavBarWidth: The value of navBarWidth is changed to that of maxNavBarWidth. Value of navBarWidth > Value of maxNavBarWidth and Result of [Component width - Value of minContentWidth - Divider width (1 vp)] < Value of maxNavBarWidth: The value of navBarWidth is changed to that of minNavBarWidth. Value of navBarWidth > Value of maxNavBarWidth and Component width - Value of minContentWidth - Divider width (1 vp) is within the value range specified by navBarWidthRange: The value of navBarWidth is changed to Component width - Value of minContentWidth - Divider width (1 vp). 2. When the value of navBarWidth is within the value range specified by navBarWidthRange, navBarWidth is set according to the following rules: Value of minNavBarWidth + Value of minContentWidth + Divider width (1 vp) > = Component width: The value of navBarWidth is changed to that of minNavBarWidth. Value of minNavBarWidth + Value of minContentWidth + Divider width (1 vp) < Component width and Value of navBarWidth + Value of minContentWidth + Divider width (1 vp) > = Component width: The value of navBarWidth is changed to Component width - Value of minContentWidth - Divider width (1 vp). Value of minNavBarWidth + Value of minContentWidth + Divider width (1 vp) < Component width and Value of navBarWidth + Value of minContentWidth + Divider width (1 vp) < Component width: The value of navBarWidth is the set value. 3. When the component size is decreased, the content area is shrunk until its width reaches the value defined by minContentWidth, and then the navigation bar is shrunk until its width reaches the value defined by minNavBarWidth; if the component size is further decreased, the content area is further shrunk until it disappears, and then navigation bar is shrunk. 4. When the navigation bar is set to a fixed size and the component size is continuously decreased, the navigation bar is shrunk. 5. If only navBarWidth is set, the width of the navigation bar is fixed at the value of navBarWidth, and the divider cannot be dragged. |
Auto | In API version 9 and earlier versions: If the window width is greater than or equal to 520 vp, the Split mode is used; otherwise, the Stack mode is used. In API version 10 and later versions: If the window width is greater than or equal to 600 vp, the Split mode is used; otherwise, the Stack mode is used. 600 vp = minNavBarWidth (240 vp) + minContentWidth (360 vp). |
TitleHeight9+
Name | Description |
---|---|
MainOnly | Recommended height (56 vp) of the title bar when only the main title is available. |
MainWithSub | Recommended height (82 vp) of the title bar when both the main title and subtitle exist. |
NOTE
Among the scrollable components, only <List> is supported.
