# Switch between List, Board, Calendar and Gantt

> Look at a project's tasks as a list, a board, a calendar or a Gantt chart, and pick the view that fits the job.

Every project can show its tasks in four views. They all show the same tasks, so switch whenever another view suits what you are doing: a list to go through details, a board to move work along, a calendar to see what is due when, and a Gantt chart to plan over time. A project opens on its board.

To switch, open the project and choose **List**, **Board**, **Calendar** or **Gantt** above the tasks.

## Go through tasks in a list

1. Choose **List**.
2. Choose **Columns** to show or hide columns, such as **Team** or **Stage**.
3. Click a task to open it.

Each task is a row with its status, priority, assignee, due date and subtasks.

## Move work along on the board

1. Choose **Board**.
2. Drag a card to another column to move the task to that stage, or up and down to change its order.
3. Choose **Add Task** at the bottom of a column to add a task to it.

Each column is a stage of the work. To add, rename or reorder columns, see [Set up board columns](https://okido.io/en/docs/projects/set-up-board-columns.md).

## See what is due in the calendar

1. Choose **Calendar**.
2. Choose **Month** or **Week**, and use the arrows to go back or forward. **Today** brings you back to today.

Tasks appear on their due date. A task with a scheduled date runs from that date to its due date.

## Plan over time in the Gantt chart

1. Choose **Gantt**.
2. Use **−** and **+** at the top right to zoom out and in.

Each task is a bar from its start date to its due date, and a task with only a due date shows as a short bar on that day. Tasks are grouped under their milestones, arrows connect tasks that block each other, and a line marks today. Set start dates in the task to get full bars.

> **Tip:** Every view hides done tasks at first. Choose **All tasks** in the toolbar to see them too. See [Filter, sort and group tasks](https://okido.io/en/docs/projects/filter-sort-and-group-tasks.md).
