This image demonstrates the primary and secondary navigation. It is easy to see how men, women, and kids are a group of navigation because they come out in their own navigation. 

Example 1

This image shows how similar elements should be organized along lines.

Example 2

Navigation bars are a way to use continuity to show the user other page options. The linear organization demonstrates how all items in the bar are similar

Example 3

There are multiple ways continuation can be used. 
- Differing between primary and secondary navigation
- Similar elements along lines
- Navigation bars

The law of continuity, also referred to as good continuation, is a Gestalt principle suggesting that individuals are more prone to perceive lines as continuous and smoothly flowing rather than as disconnected, jagged, or broken segments.

Continuity in Interaction Design

The Gestalt principle of good continuation (the law of continuity) can be illustrated by an arrangement of two lines of diagonal dots that cross in the middle to form the general shape of an 'X'. Based on this principle, an observer naturally perceives the visual pattern as two distinct, continuous, and intersecting lines rather than as disconnected segments, separate angles, or 'V' shapes meeting at the center.
