Ascending Navigation
The Ascending Button for Navigation allows the user to navigate to a parent page from a child page by moving upward in the application or website hierarchy.
When an application’s hierarchy is well designed, the ascending button will typically take the user back to the previous page they came from.
Guidance
- Follows the default button styling with a "FormPrevious" icon.
- Displayed below the Header and aligned to the left with the pages content.
When to use
- To allow users to return to the parent (hub) screen when on a details (child/spoke) page.
- To visually communicate the parent page for the user’s current page.
Example
Ascending Navigation provides an easy way for a user to move from a child page up to a parent page.
