## File list

Once you have [opened](./menu/file) files, they will be shown as tabs in the file list located at the bottom of the map.
You can reorder them by dragging and dropping the tabs.
And when many files are open, you can scroll through the list of tabs to navigate between them.

### File selection

By clicking on a tab, you can switch between the files to inspect their statistics, and apply [edit actions](./menu/edit) and [tools](./toolbar/) to them.
By holding the <kbd>Ctrl/Cmd</kbd> key, you can add files to the selection or remove them, and by holding <kbd>Shift</kbd>, you can select a range of files.
Most of the [edit actions](./menu/edit) and [tools](./toolbar/) can be applied to multiple files at once.

<DocsNote>
    You can also navigate through the files using the arrow keys on your keyboard, and use <kbd>Shift</kbd> to add files to the selection.

### Edit actions

By right-clicking on a file tab, you can access the same actions as in the [edit menu](./menu/edit).

### Vertical layout

As mentioned in the [view options section](./menu/view), you can switch between a horizontal and a vertical layout for the file list.
The vertical file list is useful when you have many files open, or files with multiple [tracks, segments or waypoints](../gpx).
Indeed, this layout allows to inspect the content of the files through collapsible sections.

You also can apply [edit actions](./menu/edit) and [tools](./toolbar/) to inner file items.
Furthermore, you can drag and drop the inner items to reorder them, or move them in the hierarchy or even to another file.

## Elevation profile and statistics

At the bottom of the interface, you can find the elevation profile and statistics for the current selection.

### Interactive statistics

When hovering over the elevation profile, a tooltip will show statistics at the cursor position.
To get the statistics for a specific section of the elevation profile, you can drag a selection rectangle on the profile.
Click on the profile to reset the selection.

### Additional data

Using the buttons on the right of the elevation profile, you can optionally color the elevation profile by:
- **Slope** <TriangleRight size="16" class="inline-block" style="margin-bottom: 2px" /> information computed from the elevation data
- **Surface** <BrickWall size="16" class="inline-block" style="margin-bottom: 2px" /> data coming from <a href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/" target="_blank">OpenStreetMap</a>'s <a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:surface" target="_blank">surface</a> tags. This is only available for files created with **gpx.studio**.

If your selection includes it, you can also visualize: **Speed** <Zap size="16" class="inline-block" style="margin-bottom: 2px" />, **Heart rate** <HeartPulse size="16" class="inline-block" style="margin-bottom: 2px" />, **Cadence** <Orbit size="16" class="inline-block" style="margin-bottom: 2px" />, **Temperature** <Thermometer size="16" class="inline-block" style="margin-bottom: 2px" /> and **Power** <SquareActivity size="16" class="inline-block" style="margin-bottom: 2px" /> data on the elevation profile.
