# Switching between project views

## Use the different views to coordinate project activities and share updates, all within one central project inside AYOA

![Switching boards using board headers  ](https://support.ayoa.com/hs-fs/hubfs/ex1-gif-May-30-2024-01-44-47-6419-PM.gif?width=670&height=440&name=ex1-gif-May-30-2024-01-44-47-6419-PM.gif)

### Please note, when switching views, visibility of items will depend on pre-requisites being in place, for example a Mind Map with no Tasks will produce an empty Task Board view.

 

### Changing project views

1\. To change the view within your project, start with your chosen view. Here we are using Mind Map view:

![View of the mind map](https://support.ayoa.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot_1-png-May-30-2024-01-45-56-3937-PM.png?width=670&height=439&name=Screenshot_1-png-May-30-2024-01-45-56-3937-PM.png)

 

 

2\. In the top menu, next to the Mind Map name, you will see **board headers**.

![View of the board headers next to mind map name](https://support.ayoa.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot_2-png-May-30-2024-01-48-06-5804-PM.png?width=400&height=58&name=Screenshot_2-png-May-30-2024-01-48-06-5804-PM.png)

 

3\. To change the Mind Map to the document view, click on the **document icon**.

![the document icon](https://support.ayoa.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot_6-png-Mar-06-2024-09-59-05-3106-AM.png?width=80&height=85&name=Screenshot_6-png-Mar-06-2024-09-59-05-3106-AM.png)

 

4\. Your Mind Map will be then be shown as an editable, exportable document.

5\. To go open a Whiteboard connected with your project, click this icon

6\. To open the Task Board connected to your Mind Map, please click on the **tick / check icon**.

![The tick icon](https://support.ayoa.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot_7-png-Mar-06-2024-10-01-42-2496-AM.png?width=85&height=71&name=Screenshot_7-png-Mar-06-2024-10-01-42-2496-AM.png)

![The task board view](https://support.ayoa.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot_9-png-May-30-2024-02-31-18-4615-PM.png?width=670&height=441&name=Screenshot_9-png-May-30-2024-02-31-18-4615-PM.png)

 

9\. To return to the Mind Map, you can click on the M**ind Map icon**.

![The mind map icon.](https://support.ayoa.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot_10-png-Mar-06-2024-10-22-37-9908-AM.png?width=80&height=59&name=Screenshot_10-png-Mar-06-2024-10-22-37-9908-AM.png)

These project views create endless capabilities and possibilities for your AYOA projects, and remember there are even more ways to view project progress through your Task Board views (think Gantt Timeline, colourful Canvas and Kanban Workflow!)
