The layout decides how a view draws its goals. It never changes which goals match.
Switch the layout #
- In the Goals header, click Layout on the right.
- Pick Nested or Flat.
- Nested
- The default. Goals sit under their parent goals. Expand a goal to see its sub-goals.
- Flat
- Only the goals that match your filters, without their sub-goals.
Success check
The list redraws, and the Layout icon shows the layout you picked.Good to know #
- Your layout is personal, remembered per view in this browser. It never turns on Reset all or Save.
- Your organization may turn on more layouts. If the menu shows only Nested and Flat, it hasn't.
- To preview a goal without opening it, hover it in the list and press Space.
