# Multiview

The Multiview displays a single screen view of all outputs and their sources. On iPadOS and macOS, you can break off the Multiview into its own separate window. This is good if you want to move the window to an external screen for real-time video monitoring of your video router.

You can press `Command-Shift-M` to go to the Multiview section when connected to a video router.

## Changing Inputs

You can change input sources for a destination by long-pressing or right-clicking on an output. A context menu will appear with the following information and options:

* **Name of output**
* **Source menu with name of current input**: Choose a new input to bind to this output
* **Lock controls**: Lock, Unlock, or Force Unlock the output

If you have Take Mode enabled, choosing a new source will call the take or clear buttons to appear above the output source's cell in the grid. Tap on the blue checkmark button to approve the take or the red x button to cancel the take.

## Making Multiview its own Window

Tap the display icon in the upper-right corner of the Multiview section to open it in a new window. You can choose to move this window to an external display or as a smaller window to keep track of routing changes during your event.
