1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
identifying, based on an indication of a first opened instance of a user interface, a second opened instance of the user interface;
causing, based on identifying the second opened instance of the user interface, display of an instance indication element that comprises a numerical indication of open instances of the user interface;
causing, based on an interaction with the instance indication element, display of an instance indication window comprising:
a first sequencing element that indicates a sequence number of an order in which the first opened instance was opened relative to the open instances, a first data field that describes the first opened instance, and a first instance manipulation element that causes the first opened instance to become a currently displayed instance of the user interface when the first instance manipulation element is interacted;
a second sequencing element that indicates another sequence number of an order in which the second opened instance was opened relative to the open instances, a second data field that describes the second opened instance, and a second instance manipulation element that causes the second opened instance to become the currently displayed instance of the user interface when the second instance manipulation element is interacted; and
modifying, based on an indication that the first opened instance of the user interface is the currently displayed instance of the user interface, a shape of the first data field of the instance indication window.
