Managing the Hierarchy

Outline Fundamentals > Actions > Managing the Hierarchy

Both the Palm OS and the Windows applications support the management of the hierarchy through dragging and cut-paste operations.  To drag a branch, tap and hold on the expand symbol or diamond and drag the items. During a drag on with Palm OS application, a box is drawn around the branch being moved.

When using cut-paste, tap on the item's text so the insertion caret is on the item to be moved.  Then use the menu Cut Branch or Copy Branch commands.

 

On the desktop, a line is drawn to show where in the outline the item will be moved.  A small box is drawn on the line to indicate the level at which the branch will be inserted.

In the above example, the branch will be inserted as a child of 2.A.
