Content Tree

A content tree provides users with a way to navigate nested hierarchical information using a parent-child relationship model

Overview

A content tree provides users with a way to navigate nested hierarchical information using a parent-child relationship model. It is located on the left side of the screen and cannot be combined with Side Navigation or Toolbar.

Usage

Use when

  • You have nested, hierarchical information.
  • You want to manage hierarchical data and information.

Don’t use when

  • You need to navigate between pages of an application. Instead use Side Navigation.
  • You need to display actions a user may take to manipulate content within an application (i.e. edit, erase, rotate, etc.). Instead use a Toolbar.
  • You want a folder to collapse when another folder opens (instead, use an Accordion).
