(Anyone from Symmetry Corp. read this newsgroup?) The Acta Advantage outliner is pretty nice. But I really do need the ability to collapse or expand my entire outline, globally, to a specified level -- e.g., collapse the entire outline to 2nd level only, hiding everything 3rd level and above; or expand the whole outline to 3rd level, leaving everything level 4 and above hidden. (And it would certainly be a lot handier to be able to set fonts and styles for individual levels, one by one, globally instead of just topic by topic, or family by family.) The Microsoft Word outliner can expand or contract globally, level by level, just by mnouse clicks int he title bar in fact. Is Acta ever going to be able to do this?
