Ok, I've had a good look, but I can't see any triangle next to '2 world' in the outline sidebar. All there is is a little +/- button to expand/collapse the node. Nor can I see any triangles next to '2 world' in the main document area. I'm glad to hear that what I want to do is possible, but could you please explain in a little more detail where I find this triangle or perhaps link me a screenshot? The only triangle I was able to find was at the bottom of the outline sidebar. Unfortunately this triangle doesn't do what I want. It only moves sections up and down, whereas I want to promote/demote. Is this the triangle you're referring to? > > /Anders > > > shiknar > > Thu, 24 Jan 2008 22:07:47 -0800 > > > > How do I promote/demote an entire branch? > > > > For example let's say I have the following table of contents: > > > > 1.
