# Switching workspaces

You can move between workspaces in different ways.

## Switcher UI

The Switcher UI is a small widget that comes in two flavours: as a strip of buttons, or as a dropdown. You can see it at the top of the **Hats** **Project Settings** window:

In the same window, you can decide which one to use, using the property **Switcher Style**.

## Main Toolbar

If you want to see the Switcher UI in the main Unity Toolbar (i.e. where the Cloud, Layouts, Search buttons are), simply enable it in **Project Settings > Hats** under the **Display in Toolbar** property.

<div><figure><img src="https://3932909560-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FJbMi1RQ5OkWEfZdkCUEX%2Fuploads%2FjqTZt0kFEsDTrTg1lgcf%2FToolbarSwitcher_btns.png?alt=media&amp;token=a80cebdc-c241-43d6-ad24-65d947cf7b4b" alt="" width="153"><figcaption><p>Toolbar UI as Buttons</p></figcaption></figure> <figure><img src="https://3932909560-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FJbMi1RQ5OkWEfZdkCUEX%2Fuploads%2Fq7nhnuQQK0r0LILG1ca2%2FToolbarSwitcher_dropdown.png?alt=media&amp;token=a076f827-645b-45b4-8dba-4e0fa28756ee" alt="" width="180"><figcaption><p>Toolbar UI as Dropdown</p></figcaption></figure></div>

Like the regular widget, the Toolbar UI also comes both as a button strip or as a dropdown.

## Shortcuts

Hats also offers shortcuts to switch workspaces. By default, you get:

* Alt + Shift + 1: Change to the Default workspace
* Alt + Shift + 2-9: Change to other workspaces
* Alt + Shift + Right arrow: Next workspace
* Alt + Shift + Left arrow: Previous workspace

{% hint style="info" %}
For **Mac** users, all shortcuts use Option + Shift.
{% endhint %}

You can customise these shortcuts in the [Unity Shortcut manager](https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/UnityHotkeys.html).

## Workspace Switcher window

If you'd rather have the Switcher UI in a different spot in your Unity Editor, you can also open it as a dockable window by going to **Tools > Hats > Workspace Switcher Window**.

The window will contain whatever style of widget was set in the **Hats** **Project Settings**.
