# Outline Viewing

Bike has two great ways to view big outlines:

1. Collapse rows to see the big picture without being distracted by the details
2. Focus in to work on the details without being distracted by everything else

#### To collapse rows in your outline

![Collapse](/files/nsiNXVY5vMPjeGD5KrMU)

* Outline > Expand Row (`Command-0`)

  Expand selected row.
* Outline > Collapse Row (`Command-9`)

  Collapse selected row.
* Outline > Expand Row Completely (`Control-Command-0`)\
  Expand the selected row and all rows that it contains. See all contained rows.
* Outline > Collapse Row Completely (`Control-Command-9`)\
  Collapse the selected row and all rows that it contains. This is a nice way to clean up a view, when you next expand the row its contained rows will still be collapsed.
* Outline > Expand All (`Control-Command-0`)

  Expand all top level rows.
* Outline > Collapse All (`Control-Command-9`)

  Collapse all top level rows.
* Outline > Expand All by Level (`Shift-Command-0`)

  Find the minimum level that is collapsed. Expand all rows at that level.
* Outline > Collapse All by Level (`Shift-Command-9`)

  Find the maximum level that is expanded. Collapse all rows at that level.

#### To focus into your outline

![Focus In](/files/wM32kYElW81OvMPI4s5a)

* Go > Focus In (`Option-Command-Right`)
* Go > Focus Out (`Option-Command-Left`)
* Go > Focus Heading… (`Command-P`) to quickly select and focus a heading. 

In [Outline Editing](/using-bike/outline-editing.md) mode you can use arrow keys to expand and collapse rows.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://bikeguide.hogbaysoftware.com/using-bike/outline-viewing.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
