3. Visualizing Your Data in The Plex

<p>TheBrain has multiple ways to look at your data. You are probably most familiar with Normal View (what you are currently looking at in this WebBrain), which shows the current thought, parent, child and sibling thoughts.

Normal view purposely limits how much data you can see at the same time. This allows you to stay focused and keeps the plex and navigation from getting too busy. Even if you have 50.000 thoughts in your database, Normal view keeps the information you are viewing limited to your current context.

When creating new thoughts and linking thoughts together, I usually try to keep in mind not only the type of relationship it has with other thoughts. However, it's just as important to keep in mind what the context is, and what would be useful to see when viewing the current thought. For example, if you are working on a new project, it may be useful to link the project creation procedures as a link thought so you can easily refer to it.

Normal view isn't the only option you have available to you. Click the child thoughts below to learn about the other views.&nbsp;</p>
