Add and Edit Outlines to Journals

You can group text and links in an outline and then click the gray disclosure icon to expand and collapse the group.

• To add an outline, right-click in the journal, and then select Append Item > Add Outline Item. You can also add nested outline levels to outline levels that you have created. (When you click the red triangle menu of a graph that you have journaled, the Add Outline Item option is unavailable.) Click the outline’s red triangle and select Add Outline Item.

• To edit the outline heading, double-click the heading, enter the new name, and press Enter.

• To add text or links within an outline, click the outline’s red triangle and select an option described in Right-Click Options in Journals. Note that these options are not available when you click a scripted item’s red triangle.

• To add text or links outside an outline, right-click the journal and then select one of the options described in Right-Click Options in Journals.

• To edit a link, right-click the link, select Edit > Set Script, edit the path, and then click OK.

• To edit the name of the link displayed in the journal, right-click the link, select Set Button Name, enter the new name, and then click OK.
