OK, let me make sure I've got this now.
The layout module calls one screen module and numerous navigation modules.
Each navigation module is self contained, ie, a navigation module does not
call info from a screen module.
So if I want a navigation module that has a bunch of links to departments,
the links should all go in the navigation module, not into a separate screen
module that the nav module would call.
So any screen module called from a link will always show up in the location
that is specified by the layout used.
So if I want a link to a screen to display that screen in a location
different than the one specified by the layout I have used, I have to tell
that screen to use a different layout module via the ScreenInfo module..
Am I correct?
