Indenting Items

Outline Fundamentals > Actions > Indenting Items

Tab and Shift-Tab can be used to quickly change the indentation of an item.  This is the quickest way to change indentation when using a keyboard.  The desktop application also supports Alt-Shift-Left Arrow and Alt-Shift-Right Arrow to change the indentation.

When using a stylus or mouse, tap/click and hold as with vertical dragging, but shift the item in or out.  With the Palm application, the next-field, previous-field graffiti strokes also change the indentation of an item.

The Windows application uses a vertical line to show the indentation level.  The Palm OS application will redraw the item as it is shifted.

On the desktop, a vertical line is drawn to indicate the indentation level for the drag. A box is drawn on the line to indicate the branch being indented. In the example below, 2.B will be indented and become 2.A.3.
