Placement and positioning
Top navigation is shown in the header bar, at the top of the page.
It always extends across the full width of the page.
Spacing between menu items
1st level items: 20 px
2nd level items: 10 px
Each item also has an extra 5 px beyond the label on each side, to allow for the blue line on selection.
...
Default state
By default, the first item will be selected, unless otherwise configured by the user. Where there is more than one level, the first item at each level will be selected.

Internal logic
Only one item at a time can be selected from each level.
When a 1st level item is selected, the 2nd level items should be updated appropriately.
Menu items should be shown in a logical order, with the most commonly used first.
The width of each item should be responsive to the item label, up to a maximum of x characters. Item widths may be greater where there are fewer than 7 items in a level.
Truncation should be avoided, where possible, by using short labels.
2nd level navigation should only be shown where relevant. Otherwise, the area beneath the line will remain empty.
No horizontal scroll can be used within top navigation.
