The Menu bar is located on the left side and can be expanded and collapsed on every Coscine page via the stack icon (see figure below). In the Menu bar you will find an overview of all projects. On the project level, you can access the project properties via the Menu bar.

User profile and logout

In the upper right corner there is a drop-down menu with your user name (see figure above). Click on it to go to your user profile or to log out. Clicking on "Logout" will log you out of the Coscine system. Your session has now expired. This means that you have been logged out in all tabs at the same time and must log in again before using the system again.

Dark mode

The appearance of Coscine can be altered. Users can select between a bright and a dark mode. The dark mode tints Coscine in dark colors, while the bright mode uses bright colors.
