A method for providing an improved user navigation interface for an industrial control system. The system includes a computer and a display device and a computer implemented workplace application. The system also includes a plurality of process control interfaces displayed on the display device. The process control interfaces include one or more software objects for controlling and/or monitoring objects controlled by the control system. The method includes displaying in the user interface a set of the process control interfaces generated by one instance of the workplace application in a designated view that includes a corresponding set of graphic user interface objects. Each graphic user interface object identifies and, on selection, displays the corresponding the process control interface. By selecting a first or second graphic user interface objects, a user can switch between a display of a first process control interface and a display of the second process control interface provided by the same instance of the workplace application. A graphic user interface, a system and a computer program for carrying out the method are also described.
