6Lists of lists(6)An outline is a list of lists. Each list item stores the following information:
•TitleEach item contains a short title (up to 250 characters), which is emphasized in bold.
The title may be hyperlinked. Read on.
•LinkOptional. If an item has a link, then the item's title serves as the clickable text for a hyperlink.
•DescriptionOptional. A free-form field which may contain HTML.
•Count of subitemsThe total number of subitems stored under an item is shown in gray parenthesis.
If an item has subitems and no link, the the title serves as a hyperlink to the sublist.
•Expand/contract stateWhen you save an outline, Dynamic List stores whether each item's sublist is expanded or collapsed.
•Behind the scenes, more information is trackedFor each item, the user and date/time are recorded at item creation and for the latest modification.
•Mozilla Firefox »Please be aware that Firefox cannot display the Webdings font. As a result, instead of displaying arrows as outline bullets for expanding and contracting subitems, Firefox shows characters "4" and "6". If you find this behavior annoying, please try Chrome, Safari, or IE when using Dynamic List.
•Editing outlinesCurrently, the Dynamic List outline editor works with most major browsers. Reading and editing on OSX and iOS has the side effect of showing "4" for collapsed lists and "6" for expanded lists.
•Keyboard shortcutsThe Dynamic List editor displays all of its keyboard shortcuts. Learn how to move items around your outline without having to reach for the mouse.
•Browser resizingResize your browser window to the size you need. Your outlines adjust accordingly.
