Softphone Side Bar Navigation (Article)

Side bar, or "drop down menu" navigation in desktop softphone.

Below the Contivio "Media Display Window", the entire left side of the Contivio Client App is the Contivio Side Bar.  This same menu can also be seen from the Toolbar by clicking on the 3 dots icon in the center of the toolbar. In the Toolbar mode, it is referred to as the "Drop-down menu"

The Side Bar features expand Contivio into a full-feature contact center software with the ability to chat, send text messages, listen to voicemails, and read from media scripts – to name a few.
