Change View (Choice)

Provide a Change View choice in the View menu if your application allows a user to switch among three or more views.

Make Change View a cascading choice; its cascaded menu should list the available views.

Indicate the current view active in the window by displaying that view's choice in the cascaded menu with unavailable emphasis and, optionally, by including a check graphic next to it.

Do not open a new window as a result of activating Change View; instead, display the new view of the element in the current window.

Do not change the underlying data being viewed when the user changes the view.
