Cmd-keystrokes for Expand and Collapse

• An oversight, there should have been keystrokes for Expand and Collapse.

• These keystrokes go all the way back to ThinkTank for the Apple II, circa 1981 or so. Pretty ancient stuff.

• Cmd-comma expands and cmd-period collapses.

• The mnemonic for this is that the symbol over the comma is < which looks a bit like expanding. And > looks like collapsing (even though the meaning of the characters is opposite).

• As a bonus, inherited from Frontier, cmd-shift-comma toggles expand and collapse state of the bar cursor headline

Experimental feature: The Arrow Pad

• The arrow pad is designed to make reorganizing and navigating in an outline easy on a tablet like the iPad.

• It's not finished, there's still tweaking to be done, but I wanted to get an idea of how it works for people before going further.

• To access the arrow pad, choose the command from the Outliner menu.

• Screen shot below.

  • 

• There are two buttons and four arrows.

• The leftmost button says either Navigate or Reorg.

  • If it says Navigate, the arrows move the cursor.

  • If it says Reorg, the arrows reorganize the outline.

• The arrows move in the indicated direction, when you click them.

  • They are only enabled if movement in the indicated direction is possible. They are structural, so left moves to the parent when navigating, or moves the bar cursor outline out a level in

• The rightmost button says either Expand or Collapse.

  • The setting depends on whether the cursor is on a headline that is expanded or collapsed, and it says what the button will do if you click on it.

• When you're in text mode in the outline, the arrow pad automatically goes into Reorg mode.
