To change the view in Microsoft Outlook, follow these key steps:
- Open Outlook and go to the top ribbon, click on the View tab.
- To switch views, click Change View. You can select views like Compact, Single, or Preview.
- To customize further, select View Settings under the View tab. From here, you can adjust layout options such as fonts, reading pane, message preview, and arrangement.
- If needed, you can reset your view to default by clicking Reset View under the View tab.
- To create and save a new custom view, go to View > Current View > Change View > Manage Views > New, enter a name, choose view options, and apply it.
For example, to restore a normal view with the reading pane on the right, go to View > Layout > Reading Pane > Show on the Right.
This provides flexibility to quickly switch or create views that suit individual workflow needs.
