wiki navbar template

template and stuff on hwo to create Navigation templates for the wiki, that can make it easier to navigate related wiki pages from the top of the page. Example:

Sidebar
q Text Chat
P Art Library
N Journal
i Compendium
u Jukebox
l Collections
y My Settings

The main "Nav" template, which is linked to on pages, Such as {{SidebarNav}}, {{apibox}} or {{NavSheetDoc}}. At the bottom it uses {{apibox bottom}} to close of the Navigation template and make it work, no need to create a new  template each time, so {{apibox bottom}} is fine:


-----
toolbar nav templates
* {{zoom}}
* {{select}}
* {{ruler}}
* {{layers}}
* {{drawing}}
* {{fx tool}}
* {{fow}}
* {{Darkness}}

------
{{SidebarNav top|{{{1|right}}}}}
* <span style="font-family:Pictos;">q</span> [[Text Chat]]
* <span style="font-family:Pictos;">P</span> [[Art Library]]
* <span style="font-family:Pictos;">N</span> [[Journal]]
* <span style="font-family:Pictos;">y</span> [[Compendium]]
* <span style="font-family:Pictos Custom;">u</span> [[Jukebox]]
* <span style="font-family:Pictos;">l</span> [[Collections]]
* <span style="font-family:Pictos;">y</span> [[My Settings]]
{{apibox bottom}}<noinclude>{{documentation}}[[Category:Navigation Templates]]</noinclude>
------

The "Nav top" template, that determines the title of the Template:
---
<includeonly><div style="float: {{{1|right}}}; width: 200px; padding: 5px; border: 1px solid #777; margin: 0 15px 15px 15px; background-color: #efefef;">

<span style="font-size: 1.4em; font-weight: bold;margin-bottom:0px;">[[Sidebar]]</span></includeonly><noinclude>{{documentation}}[[Category:Navigation Templates]]</noinclude>
------

{{Sidebar

 | headingstyle = background-color:#eee;
 | image = [[File:|260px]]
}}
{{Sidebar
 | navbar = off
 | headingstyle = background-color:#eee;
 | title = the name
 | image = [[File:Us.png|40px]]
 | heading1 = aka nickanme
}}
{{Sidebar
 | navbar = off
 | headingstyle = background-color:#eee;
 | image = [[File:Twitch.png|40px|link=https://www.twitch.tv/Roll20app]][[File:Youtube.png|40px|link=https://www.youtube.com/roll20app]]
}}
