Outline
Navigate long documents by their headings: the Document Outline on Mac, iPhone and iPad, and the Dynamic Outline and Folding on Windows.
Document Outline
In iA Writer 8 and later on Mac, iPhone and iPad, the Document Outline lives in Quick Search. While you edit a document, click or tap the magnifying glass in the toolbar, or press ⇧⌘O (on iPhone and iPad, with a keyboard). Under This File, Quick Search lists the document’s headings, indented by level:
- choose a heading to jump to that spot in the document
- type to jump to any heading, file name or text match in this document or across your Library
If the document has no headings yet, Quick Search reminds you to add some.
The Dynamic Outline
In iA Writer for Windows, you can jump from heading to heading in the Library:
- the active library element turns into an outline
- it indents titles hierarchically
- you can click on the title to go directly to that spot in the document
The Folding feature
In iA Writer for Windows, you can compress and expand chapters with a single click!
Folding isn’t available on Mac, iPhone and iPad. There, use the Document Outline to jump between sections.
