# Visualizing the effects of aspects on a project

To visualize the effects of your aspects, open the Aspect Visualization perspective and select the required project in the Projects view, which is located at the top left of the Aspect Visualization perspective. The classes and aspects contained within the selected project are represented as bars in the Visualiser view, with

- stripes representing the places where aspects are affecting the code, with the different colors representing the different aspects. To find out which color represents which aspect, look in the Visualiser Menu view in the far right of the Aspect Visualization perspective and
- filled in bars representing classes and aspects which are not affected by any aspects. To filter these out from the view click the Limit visualiation to affected bars button in the Visualiser toolbar.

You can choose which aspects to visualize by checking/unchecking the box next to the required/nonrequired aspect in the Visualiser Menu.
