The page navigation is visible on the left side of every page. It contains a list of links that you use to select the current page.

<div data-with-frame="true"><figure><img src="/files/S2TnsR7671DxfGE6ZZKU" alt=""><figcaption><p>Press the <i class="fa-bars">:bars:</i> <em>Menu</em> icon to show/hide the page navigation.</p></figcaption></figure></div>

Press the <i class="fa-bars">:bars:</i> *Menu* icon in the top left (inside the top bar) to show/hide the [page navigation](/encyclopedia/software/access/components/page-navigation.md). This is useful on small displays because it gives more room for the page content itself.
