Keep Menu Visible

Is there a way to keep the Menu bar visible as you scroll down the page? I've looked through the settings and can't seem to find anything that allows me to do this.
Hi Shane,
I'm on my phone so I can't really write code, but you can use our Exhibit or Mantle child themes which both have fixed navigations.

If you'd rather use the regular parent theme, I can definitely provide you with some code when I get home later tonight.
Thanks!
Were you able to get it working with one of our child themes?
I used the Mantle theme. It is working great. Thanks again for the help.
Awesome! You're welcome.
Hi Tom,
I am also looking for making the nav menu sticky, so i followed your advice and installed both your child themes. Yes they both work, but is it possible to make the sticky menu look like the default menu? I don't it to be full width, but same as container width.
Thanks!
At this time that's not possible without quite a bit of extra code.
I'll look into including this feature in the near future.
Thanks!
OK no problem. Would it be easier to use the generatepress theme without a one of your child themes and make it sticky via CSS code? I think you mentioned this in another post, but it made both the header logo and the menu sticky, which is not suitable for me. Thanks a lot..
It's probably easier to use one of the child themes with the sticky nav as the javascript is already added.
I dug up an old post where I provided code that should make it so the code is so the sticky nav doesn't go 100% wide: http://generatepress.com/forums/topic/navigation-menu-2/#post-13703
Let me know if this helps :)
