# CloudNine Review: How do I View Documents in CloudNine Review?

## Viewing Documens Records in a CloudNine Review Project

There are three viewing options in CloudNine Review: [Vertical Doc List View](https://kb.cloudnine.com/cloudnine-review-understanding-the-different-views#VerticalDocList), [Native Tree View](https://kb.cloudnine.com/cloudnine-review-understanding-the-different-views#NativeTreeView), and [Table View](https://kb.cloudnine.com/cloudnine-review-understanding-the-different-views#TableView). CloudNine Review's default view is the **Vertical Doc List View** and is the one you see the first time you open a CloudNine Review project. You can change views using the **View** drop-down at the top left of the window or select the **View** option from the menu **Tools-View**.  The last view selected when exiting the project is the view you will see the next time you open the CloudNine Review project.

![ViewAccess-1](https://kb.cloudnine.com/hs-fs/hubfs/KB_C9R/ViewAccess-1.png?width=670&height=95&name=ViewAccess-1.png)<https://kb.cloudnine.com/cloudnine-review-understanding-the-different-views#TableView>

**View options for CloudNine Review:** 

- [Vertical Doc List View](https://kb.cloudnine.com/cloudnine-review-understanding-the-different-views#VerticalDocList)
- [Native Tree View](https://kb.cloudnine.com/cloudnine-review-understanding-the-different-views#NativeTreeView)
- [Table View](https://kb.cloudnine.com/cloudnine-review-understanding-the-different-views#TableView)

### Vertical Document List

CloudNine Review's **Vertical Doc List View** is the default view you see when you open a CloudNine Review project for the first time. 

![VerticalDocView-1](https://kb.cloudnine.com/hs-fs/hubfs/KB_C9R/VerticalDocView-1.png?width=670&height=320&name=VerticalDocView-1.png)

There are three main parts to the **Vertical Doc List View**.

1. **Vertical Document List:** The document list you see represents the current collection of documents available for your review. This collection may include all documents within the database or the results from an active filter or search. To enhance your navigation experience, the document list is organized into groups of 25 records. For instance, if your search yields 100 documents, you will view these as four distinct groups of 25 documents each. This layout minimizes excessive scrolling and promotes efficient navigation across the active list. By default, documents are sorted by the CloudNine DocID field. Select **Tools-View-Sort** to sort by a different field. 
   
   When you select a document, it will be highlighted to indicate it is the current document. The **Document View** and **Data Panel** will then reflect information related to the selected document.
2. **Document View:** Displays tabs for each document version available for the selected record. The tab will only appear if that version of the document exists. Each document may have one or more of the following document versions. 
   
   ![DocumentStateTabs-1](https://kb.cloudnine.com/hs-fs/hubfs/KB_C9R/DocumentStateTabs-1.png?width=655&height=63&name=DocumentStateTabs-1.png) 
     1. **Image:** An imaged version of the original document acquired by scanning paper documents or converting electronic documents.
     2. **Native:** A copy of the electronic file after extraction from any container file. When the native tab is selected, the file type is displayed in the viewer if supported. If not supported, the native file is downloaded to your computer.
     3. **Text:** The corresponding text associated with the document or document image. Text may be extracted from the native file or generated through Optical Character Recognition (OCR).
     4. **HTML:** The native file rendered to HTML form.
     5. **Produced:** The produced image copy of the document. A document may be produced multiple times. Each version of the produced copy can be accessed through the Produced drop-down menu and is identified by its corresponding CloudNine Review production ID.
3. **Data Panel:** Fielded information about the selected document. Fields may be populated automatically through native file processing during metadata extraction, or manually via coding. **System Fields** include fields specific to CloudNine Review or extracted Metadata. **User Fields** are custom fields created and coded by the user.

A list of CloudNine Review system and metadata fields is available [here](https://kb.cloudnine.com/cloudnine-review-do-you-have-a-list-of-the-metadata-fields-in-cloudnine-review?hsLang=en). 

#### Navigating Records in Vertical Doc List View

To navigate between documents in the Vertical Doc List View: 

- On your keyboard, use the **Left** (previous) and **Right** (next) arrow keys to navigate through the document list. When you reach the last document in a group, you will automatically advance to the first document in the next group.
- Click the left mouse button to select a document record.
- Use the **Navigation** arrows from the **Document Review** tools at the top of the **Data** **Panel** on the Vertical Doc List View.

![Navigation1-1](https://kb.cloudnine.com/hs-fs/hubfs/KB_C9R/Navigation1-1.png?width=87&height=35&name=Navigation1-1.png)

#### **Group Toolbar**

The Group Toolbar allows you to navigate to the **Next** or **Previous** groups using arrow icons. You can also type the group number next to **Group,** then press **Enter** to access the specified group. The Group Toolbar is available on the **Vertical Doc List View** and **Table View**.

![GroupNavigation](https://kb.cloudnine.com/hs-fs/hubfs/KB_C9R/GroupNavigation.png?width=215&height=46&name=GroupNavigation.png)

#### **Status Bar**

The Status Bar at the bottom of the page references the **Current** search you are viewing and the number of **Documents** in the result list. The **Status Bar** is available on all three views.

### Native Tree View

The Native Tree View provides an alternative way to view records in CloudNine Review. In this view, the folder structure mirrors the documents' source structure. This feature allows users to drill into the folder structure to view documents and metadata. The main difference between the Native Tree View and the Vertical Document List is that the folder path replaces the document list, organizing documents by folder rather than by group.

### ![NativeTreeView](https://kb.cloudnine.com/hs-fs/hubfs/KB_C9R/NativeTreeView.png?width=670&height=320&name=NativeTreeView.png)

#### Navigating in Tree View

For keyboard navigation, use your **Left** (previous) and **Right** (next)  arrow keys on your keyboard. When you reach the last document in a folder, you are advanced to the next folder, then to the next document.

### Table View

Viewing documents in Table View is entirely different than the **Vertical Document List** or **Native Tree View.**

![TableView-1](https://kb.cloudnine.com/hs-fs/hubfs/KB_C9R/TableView-1.png?width=670&height=322&name=TableView-1.png)

1. In Table View, each row is a document record, and metadata is displayed in columns.
2. Columns display metadata for the associated document. Columns may be resized and sorted. Additionally, you can customize the displayed column fields and their order by navigating to **Tools - Sort - Table Sort Settings**. See [Customizing Table View](https://kb.cloudnine.com/cloudnine-review-how-do-i-customi?hsLang=en).
3. Document records are displayed in groups of 25. The **Group** toolbar is used to navigate between document groups.
4. The image icon![View](https://kb.cloudnine.com/hs-fs/hubfs/KB_C9R/View.png?width=28&height=24&name=View.png) on the left opens the Document Review window. Since this is a separate window, the Table View is ideal for split-screen or dual-monitor review.

#### **Split Screen Viewing**

![SplitScreen](https://kb.cloudnine.com/hs-fs/hubfs/KB_C9R/SplitScreen.png?width=670&height=319&name=SplitScreen.png)

#### Navigating in Table View

 Keyboard navigation in Table view is different than the other two views. To navigate between document records, you will use the **Up** (previous) or **Down** (next) arrow keys on the keyboard. The right and left arrow keys are used to move through the field data.
