See the node "Tree Operation" in leoSettings.leo. My preference is always to collapse as much as possible. The new "clone find" commands should also help you. cff (clone-find-flattened) makes clones of found nodes, and collects them as direct children of a new top-level node. The cffm (clone-find-flattened-marked) does the same with all marked nodes. So you can gather nodes by marking them and then doing a cffm. All the clone-find commands gather results in one place, thereby eliminating the need to have lots of suboutlines expanded. > Back to learning new leo then :) > Thanks for your comments.
