# Property Grid - Accordion View (Vue 3)

By default, the Property Grid displays only one selected category at a time, allowing users to focus on the category's contents. As an alternative, the Property Grid supports accordion view, in which it displays all categories. Users can expand the categories to access nested properties and collapse them once the properties are configured. To activate the accordion view, set the [`propertyGridNavigationMode`](https://surveyjs.io/survey-creator/documentation/api-reference/icreatoroptions#propertyGridNavigationMode) property to `"accordion"`, as shown in this demo.
