Outlining in the Spreadsheet View
Outlining is a feature available in spreadsheet views, including the spreadsheet portion of the barchart view.
With outlining, you can use the hierarchical information implicit in the activity ID to expand or collapse the display of detail information.
With the outlining feature, you can display higher-level elements using a different font and background color to distinguish them from detail rows. You can also indicate the default level for collapsing information.
If you use outlining for a view with a filter in effect, the display of child items is determined by the status of the parent. If you use outlining for a view that has a sort order in effect, Open Plan sorts the rows within the defined outlining structure.
To enable outlining for a spreadsheet view, use the Options tab of the Spreadsheet Preferences dialog box.
Defining Outlining
You can control the outlining feature for a spreadsheet view. To define outlining, you must first enable the feature by clicking Enable Outlining on the Options tab of the Spreadsheet Preferences dialog box. You can then define the settings on the Outlining tab.
