# Opening a View

Amaya can present different views of a document simultaneously. Each view is displayed in a different window. This allows you to clearly see what is happening when you edit complex documents. It is also an aid for moving across a document.

Note: View options are only available from the normal browser view (formatted view).

To open a view:

- Select the appropriate Show menu item from the Views menu:

  Show Menu Item | Keyboard Shortcut
  View Structure | `Ctrl v Ctrl s`
  View Alternate | `Ctrl v Ctrl a`
  View Links | `Ctrl v Ctrl l`
  View Table of Contents | `Ctrl v Ctrl c`
  View Source | `Ctrl v Ctrl o`

  Note: `Ctrl v` is replaced by `Ctrl u` on Windows platforms because `Ctrl v` is used by the Paste command.

  Note: You can also use Show commands on the Views menu to bring the corresponding window forward when it is in the background.
