Outline Levels
You can assign outline levels (1 through 5) to paragraphs by indenting the paragraph.
An icon appears to the left of each paragraph when you point to the paragraph. You can
select all the content within the level headed by the paragraph by clicking the icon, and
you can collapse or expand the content within the level by double-clicking the icon. You
can also hide levels, which gives you the equivalent of an outline view.
To change the paragraph indentation for the purpose of assigning an outline level:


  1. Click to place the cursor at the beginning of the paragraph, or drag to select
    multiple paragraphs.

  2. Press the Tab key to increase the level, or press the Backspace key or Shift+Tab
    to decrease the level.
    To select all text of a specific outline level within a note:
    ● Right-click the note container header, click Select, and then click the outline level
    you want to select.


You can create an outline view by indenting paragraphs.

Keyboard Shortcuts Press Alt+Shift+level number (for example, Alt+Shift+1) to show
all content through the specified outline level. Press Alt+Shift+0 to expand all outline
levels. Press Alt+Shift+Plus Sign to expand a collapsed outline. Press Alt+Shift+Minus
Sign to collapse an expanded outline.
