Sorry, my mistake, I misunderstood what you were aiming at. .

Try to use the +/- button (or whatever icon you have) to collapse the
node and *then* (sorry for misspelling in previous mail) do the
indentation. This should give an indentation of the entire node.
It doesn't seem to matter whether the node is collapsed or not. If the
node is uncollapsed when I demote, it only demotes the selected
heading (nothing new there). If the node is collapsed when I demote,
lyx will present me with an uncompressed node with only the top
heading demoted.

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?

How do I promote/demote an entire branch?
For example let's say I have the following table of contents:
1. Hello
2. World
2.1 How
2.2 Are
2.3 You
If I demote the second heading using the Document->Outline
sidebar,
lyx will
give me this:
1. Hello
1.1 World
1.2 How
1.3 Are
1.4 You
In other words lyx will only demote the heading and ignore all of
it's
content thereby breaking the hierarchical structure of the
document.
Sometimes this is what I want, but more often than not, what I
really need
is for lyx to demote the entire branch of the tree giving me
something like
this:
1. Hello
1.1. World
1.1.1 How
1.1.2 Are
1.1.3 You
As best as I can tell the only way of doing this in lyx is to
manually
demote every single subheading. This makes reorganising the
structure of
hierarchical documents unnecessarily time consuming. Is there a
better way
of doing this?
