The Navigator page is your primary location for browsing and manipulating files in Orion. The page can be focused on any folder, including the root folder associated with each Orion user. The current folder being displayed is shown in the title area, with a breadcrumb showing the complete path to the folder. You can browse through a directory hierarchy either by clicking on a folder to open a Navigator page on that folder, or by expanding the tree to show children in the same page. You can navigate upwards by clicking a path in the breadcrumb, or by clicking Go Up (Alt+Up on the keyboard). Clicking a file will open a page for that file. For source code files (JavaScript, HTML, CSS), clicking on a file will open the Coding page.
Commands that operate on selected files and folders in the list appear in the Actions menu in the tool bar. The New File and New Folder commands will operate on the selected folder, or on the root folder if there is no folder selected.
Some commands are also accessible using the keyboard. Type '?' to display a list of available commands:
When the Navigator is at the root of the file system, additional commands are shown in the outline bar to help you get started adding content to Orion.

The left hand side of the Navigator page shows a panel listing bookmarked links, referred to as Favorites in Orion. Click Make Favorite in the Actions menu to add any file or folder as a favorite. You can also save any web site address as a favorite by clicking the Add Favorite icon within the Favorites panel. Search results can also be marked as favorites from the Search Results page. Current favorites can be renamed and deleted by clicking the command icons that appear when you select any favorite in your list.
You can navigate through the listed files in the Navigator using your keyboard:
