To begin creating an outline using the outlining template, place your cursor inside the first text prompt and begin typing. You will need to fill out all required prompts in the outline template.

If you would like to reorder main points or subpoints in your outline, click the three dots to the right of each prompt and select “Move this item.”

You can add additional main points or support using the Add button.

You can also delete main points or support by selecting the three dots, and then clicking “Delete this item.”
