# List Views

## Overview

In Taglo software, you'll be spending much of your time creating and editing items that belong in lists. Examples of these from Models are:

* A list of [**Variables**](/variables/variable-basics.md)
* A list of [**Assumptions**](/assumptions/introduction-to-assumptions.md)
* A list of [**Sheets**](/layout/sheets.md) in your [**Layout**](/layout/generating-excel.md)
* A list of [**Calculation Parts**](/calculations/calculation-parts.md) in a [**Calculation**](/calculations/introduction-to-calculations.md)

Given that you'll be spending so much time working in lists, we provide a consistent way of viewing, searching, and managing the items in these lists.

## View types

The default type of view for a list of items will vary with the item. There are 2 main views that you will usually see, Basic and Tree. You may sometimes also see a Grid view.

<table data-view="cards"><thead><tr><th></th><th></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Basic</strong></td><td><img src="/files/zvdwCnywkC7hOne3PfSm" alt="" data-size="original"></td></tr><tr><td><strong>Tree</strong></td><td><img src="/files/Q7TQRlysJIeVsXruK0t8" alt="" data-size="original"></td></tr><tr><td><strong>Grid</strong></td><td><img src="/files/b8nlLlKwfvbg96Wo8Vgp" alt="" data-size="original"></td></tr></tbody></table>

## Switching views

Taglo allows you to view most lists in multiple ways. For instance, you may want to view an item that is presented in a Tree View as a Basic List, or in a Grid View.

You'll find the Switch View control (shown below) at the bottom of all lists that have multiple views enabled. Simply click on one of the buttons to select a view.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you are currently working in a list, you can also switch between views with the keyboard shortcut **`Ctrl+Number`***<mark style="background-color:yellow;">.</mark>*

e.g. To switch to the second available view, press **`Ctrl+2`**
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.taglo.io/using-taglo-software/the-taglo-interface/list-views.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
