+====== Navigator > Multiple Perspectives ======
+This page presents a series of thumbnails which, when clicked on, open nested pages.  There are 4 options for these nested pages, focusing on text, an image, an audio recording or a video recording.  While you can embed a link to video hosted elsewhere onto any page in Xerte, this is one of the few page types where the default is to upload the video into Xerte. :!: New in 3.13. When the thumbnails are set to display as a **Grid**, the content associated with a thumbnail can be set to display in a lightbox, rather than as a nested page.
