New features

  • Optional headings can be activated and deactivated by clicking the 'check box' icon in the outline pane
  • Advice is provided if out of memory error occurs

    This will swap their numbers.
  • All subheadings to a heading can be expanded or collapsed by holding down Shift while expanding/collapsing
  • Branches in the outline pane can be fully expanded or collapsed by holding down Shift while expanding/collapsing

    E.g. short form of effect measures.
