Morphology
The meaning 'visible' or 'within sight' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'in' (indicating position) with 'view' (the visible scene). This straightforward prepositional phrase follows common compositional patterns found across languages, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily infer the MWE's meaning.
Etymology
The phrase in view gives a simple picture: something is in your view, meaning it sits where you can see it. So it means 'visible' or 'within sight'.
