*Navigator: The navigator is located at the left of the window and allows selection of the different categories.
*Progress Bar and Status Bar: These are located at the very bottom of the GRAMPS Gramps window. ** The Progress Bar is located in the lower left corner of the GRAMPS Gramps window. It displays the progress of time consuming operations, such as opening and saving large databases, importing and exporting to other formats, generating web sites, etc. When you are not doing these types of operations, the Progress Bar is not shown. ** The Status Bar is located to the right of the Progress Bar. It displays information about current GRAMPS Gramps activity and contextual information about the selected items.
*Display area: The largest area in the center of the GRAMPS Gramps window is the display area. What it displays depends on the currently selected View. We'll will discuss Views in detail below.
*Bottombar: The bottombar is located below the display area.
The Bottombar and the Sidebar allow gramplets to be displayed alongside a view. (Details to be provided, based e.g. on [[GEPS_019:_Improved_Sidebar_and_Split_Views]] and [[Gramps 3.3 Wiki Manual - What's new?#GrampsBar]] and with references to [[#Filters]], [[Gramps 3.3 Wiki Manual - Filters]] and [[Gramps_3.3_Wiki_Manual_-_Gramplets#Sidebar_and_bottombar]])
The Navigator, Toolbar, Sidebar and Bottombar can be individually turned on or off by options in '''menu {{man menu|View'''}}. If the Sidebar is not displayed, then the {{man label|Search bar}} is displayed instead.
