Hi,
I figured that train is not my problem the fact that i want to use
navigation rules that do not excist already is a bigger problem. I
found ways to acces the navigation rules from the runtime
configuration, but these cannot be modified (i also do not really want
them to change here because this will influence navigation for all
users). Is there a way to modify the navigation rules such that
changes only apply to one session?
Thanks,
Jeroen Weijers
