Description

The Section Iterator Navigation Object moves between the previous and next siblings in a Section, functioning almost like a "forward/back" link. It outputs the Section name and allows the user to quickly go back to the Section before, or move to the next Section. This is useful for Sections of content which are sequential, when a user may want to move from page to page in a specific order.

The one Navigation Object outputs links to both the Section before and section after the current Section, excluding any sections that are hidden from navigation.

How to create a Section Iterator object
