If Show Navigation Toolbar is selected, you can hide the Viewer icon that appears by default. Tapping the Viewer icon displays

the previously viewed folio.

Select this option if you want folios to be available for purchase only through a subscription and not through individual

purchase.

Selecting this option prevents the Sign In button from appearing in the upper left corner of the screen when a custom icon is

tapped.

Select this option to hide free folios from your library. This option is especially useful if you want to use your custom server to

entitle customers to specify folios based on their sign in account information.

For information on restricting folios, see

Using restricted distribution with Digital Publishing Suite

.

If you select Portrait or Landscape, the app remains in that orientation on an iPad. This setting affects all views, including

the library view and folio view, even if the folio is dual-orientation.

Use this section to specify custom icons for the navigation toolbar of the default library

or to specify a custom HTML library.

When you click the Library icon in the Navigation Toolbar section of DPS App Builder, the Use Custom Viewer

Library option appears. If you click the option icon, you can specify the .zip file that includes your HTML code. Note that this option does not
appear if "Use Legacy Store APIs" is selected in the App Details page. For more information about creating custom library, see Creating a custom
library (Enterprise).

Click the plus icon on the right side of the panel to create a custom button (also called a "custom slot") for the Navigation Toolbar.

Or, select the Library or Viewer icons to replace the default Library and Viewer icons with default icons.

You can include as many as 8 navigation icons for the iPad (6 custom plus the Library and Viewer icons) and 2 for the iPhone (1 custom plus
Library).

For each icon, specify 30x30 and 60x60-pixel PNG files with a transparent background. Use any color for the foreground image. iOS applies a
system color (usually light blue) to non-transparent pixels and changes the appearance of the icon to indicate whether it's selected.

When users tap a custom icon, an in-app browser displays the contents of the HTML file you provide, such as a website for a store, a news feed,
or help page. Customers can tap a Close button to return to library view.

Specify the text, such as "Store" or "Help" that appears below the icon.

If your app includes multiple languages in the UI, you can edit the XML file that you download when you select the Use Customized Strings option
in the App Details section. You can also use this XML file to change the "Library" and "Viewer" labels. For details, see the "Use Customized
Strings" description earlier in this article.

Select WebView to display the contents of an HTML file you specify. Select Navigation only if you’re publishing a Woodwing-based app in

which you can use the Intent metadata to jump to a cover, table of contents, or help article. Specify the name in the Intent field.

This option lets you use the goto:// format to create article links that open the HTML content associated with the custom icon.

For example, if your link name is “Store,” creating a button with a goto://ApplicationViewState/Store action opens the Store webview.

See Create goto links to custom icons.

Specify a .zip file containing the assets to be used for the web view that appears when users tap the toolbar button.

The .zip file should include a single HTML file and any required image and CSS files. The .zip file should not contain subfolders; all content should
be on the same level.

If you want the web view that appears when users tap the toolbar button to display in only one orientation, choose Horizontal or

Vertical.

Select this option to hide the title bar that appears at the top of the viewer library when the custom icon’s HTML content is

displayed.
