Using subtopics (children)

 

The examples used so far have only contained one level of

 

topics (excluding the title, which is always on the first level

 

by itself). This simple outline form may be all you need to

 

organize your information. You can, however, create

 

subtopics for greater flexibility. Each subtopic belongs to

 

the particular topic that is on the next level above it. A

 

subtopic can, in turn, have its own subtopics: these can

 

continue for 15 levels below the title. Subtopics are referred

 

to as children, the topic they belong to as the parent, and

5

parents and children together as a family.

 

The example below shows an outline illustrating these

 

points.
