If you have several data views for an object class, you can easily switch between those views by clicking the down arrow next to the view name on the module menu. To apply a view, just select it from the drop-down list.

Each view name is shown with an icon that indicates the type of the view:

• This icon indicates personal views, which are available for you only.

• This icon indicates shared views, which are available for you and other Alloy Navigator Express users.

Alternatively, you can switch between views as follows:

• Select View > Current View from the main menu and then select the view to display.

• If the style of your Sidebar is Modules and Views, simply click the view name in the Sidebar. For details, see Changing the Sidebar style.
