\title Browsing Project Contents
You can organize \QC views in \l {Working with Sidebars}{sidebars} or as
\if defined(qtdesignstudio)
\l {Managing Workspaces}{workspaces},
\else
workspaces
\endif
depending on the \l{Selecting Modes}
{mode} you are working in. Only views that are relevant to a mode are
available in it.
The following views are related to managing projects and files:
\list
\li \l Projects shows a list of projects open in the current
session and the project files needed by the build system.
\li \l{File System} shows all files in the currently selected
directory.
\li \l{Open Documents} shows currently open files.
\li \l{Using Bookmarks}{Bookmarks} shows all bookmarks for the current
session.
\li \l{Working with Branches}{Git Branches} shows the local and remote
brances for the project in the Git version control system.
\li \l{Viewing Defined Types and Symbols}{Outline} shows an overview of
defined types and other symbols, as well as their properties and
hierarchy in a source file.
\endlist
\if defined(qtcreator)
The following views display additional information about C++ code:
\list
\li \l{Viewing the Class Hierarchy}{Class View} shows the class
hierarchy of the currently open projects.
\li \l{Running Autotests}{Tests} lists autotests and Qt Quick
tests in the project.
\li \l{Viewing Type Hierarchy}{Type Hierarchy} shows the base
classes of a class.
\li \l{Viewing Include Hierarchy}{Include Hierarchy} shows which
files are included in the current file and which files include
the current file.
\endlist
\else
For more information about views that are only available when editing QML
files in the \uicontrol Design mode, see \l{Design Views}.
\endif
The additional options in a particular view are described in the following
sections.
In some views, right-clicking opens a context menu that contains functions
for managing the objects listed in the view.
\section1 Viewing Defined Types and Symbols
The \uicontrol Outline view shows an overview of defined types and other
symbols, as well as their properties and hierarchy in a source file.
You can move the code for types and symbols around in the source file
by dragging and dropping them in the outline.

\list
\li To see a complete list of all bindings, select
\inlineimage filtericon.png
(\uicontrol {Filter Tree}) > \uicontrol {Show All Bindings}.
\li To sort types or symbols alphabetically, select
\inlineimage sort_alphabetically.png
(\uicontrol {Sort Alphabetically}).
\li To stop the synchronization with the type or symbol selected in the
editor, deselect \inlineimage linkicon.png
(\uicontrol {Synchronize with Editor}).
\endlist
\section1 Viewing the Class Hierarchy
The \uicontrol {Class View} shows the class hierarchy of the currently
open projects.
\image qtcreator-class-view.png "Class View"
To organize the view by subprojects, click
\inlineimage icons/qtcreator-show-subprojects.png
(\uicontrol {Show Subprojects}).
To visit all parts of a namespace, double-click on the namespace item
multiple times.
\section1 Viewing Type Hierarchy
To view the base classes and derived classes of a class, right-click the
class in the code editor and select \uicontrol {Open Type Hierarchy} or
press \key {Ctrl+Shift+T}.
\image qtcreator-type-hierarchy-view.png "Type Hierarchy view"
To navigate in the type hierarchy, double-click a class or select it,
and then select \uicontrol {Open Type Hierarchy} in the context menu.
The previous class is highlighted in the view.
The definition of the selected class is opened in the code editor. You
can also select \uicontrol {Open in Editor} in the context menu to open
it.
\section1 Viewing Include Hierarchy
To view which files are included in the current file and which files include
the current file, right-click in the editor and select
\uicontrol {Open Include Hierarchy} or press \key {Ctrl+Shift+I}.
