c.You cannot move a topic one character to the left if this action would split up a parent and child. Move the selected topic to another location and then promote it.

If you divide a topic that has subtopics (children), the second half of the divided topic will become the parent of these subtopics. The two parts of the original topic remain on the same level.

You should not attempt to join a topic with a collapsed topic above it. If you do, the unit will ask for confirmation. If you continue, it will combine the topic with the last topic in the preceding topic’s family. It is better to first expand the collapsed topic’s family in order to see what you are combining with.
