Main Navigation Framework
The main navigation framework in Flare Online is the top and left navigation area of the workspace. The options remain accessible as you open any of the various pages in the Flare Online license, and some of the options in the top bar dynamically change, depending on the page you open. Also, the Flare Online logo on the lower-left opens the About box, which shows version and copyright information about Flare Online.
Note If you are logged in with the author user type, you will see the entire user interface. If you are logged in as a subject matter expert (SME), you will only see the Reviews page and limited other parts of the interface.
