.. _navigation-buttons:

Navigation buttons
******************

The navigation buttons |buttonIconBackNavigation9| |buttonIconForwardNavigation9| give access to previous and next pages in the history.

The Ajax technology used by ProjeQtOr makes it possible to refresh the data while preserving the structure of the solution.

This is why you will lose the session to projeqtor if you use the navigation of your internet browser.



.. _buttons-newtab:

Button New tab
**************

The new tab button |newtab| allows to open a new tab within the same session.

When you open a tab on your browser, it opens a new session of ProjeQtOr.

For the browser to open the tab as a result of the first session you must go through our navigation system.


When you are already connected to a session, a screen indicates this to you.

Click on the button to reconnect from this tab or leave this one to recover the current session.

The selector allows you to select the project to work on by limiting the visibility of all screens to the items in the selected project, including sub-projects if any.

When you create a new item, this sets the project scope automatically.
