# View messages from a stream
|
||
|
|

|

|
||
|
|
||
|
In the home view, you'll see messages from all streams and topics. However,
|
||
|
you may only want to see messages from a single stream. This is also
|
||
|
called 'narrowing' to a stream.
|
||
|
|
||
|
To view messages from a stream, select the stream from the stream list on
|
||
|
the left.
|
||
|
|
||
|
![narrowed view](/static/images/help/narrowed-view.png)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Only messages from the selected stream will be displayed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
In the stream list, the stream whose messages are currently being viewed
|
||
|
will be highlighted in blue, and the topics in that stream will be
|
||
|
displayed below the stream name.
|
||
|
|
||
|
An alternative way to view messages from only one stream is to type
|
||
|
**stream:** in the search bar at the top, and then enter the name of the
|
||
|
stream whose messages you want to view. Autocomplete options to narrow to a
|
||
|
stream will appear as you type.
|
||
|
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
||
|
You can view messages from a stream that you're not subscribed to through
|
||
|
the search bar, but you'll generally want to subscribe to streams whose
|
||
|
messages you want to view.
