Kwik Book App Cover Page Buttons

This is a continuation of the last tutorial where we added our first button to the template.
We can now repeat these steps for the Next button.
Set Buttons On Cover Page
Now that we have a page1, we can set the Enter and Pages button on the cover page to open the book to page 1 or show the navigational menu.
In the Page/Components section of the Kwik panel, click the Switch to Pages View icon to show the list of pages.
Select the cover page for the list. You should see "@ cover" at the top of the section.
Repeat the steps for the Enter button on the cover page.
