How to collapse/expand text within a table?
In OneNote one can collapse/expand indented text by hovering a bit left of the outermost top line and - once the chevron appears - clicking on it. This collapses/expands all lines below that have deeper indentation than the top line.
I would like to do the same with indented text inside a table cell! But there when hovering over it the chevron never appears - hence I can not click on it. 😞
Is there another method (e.g. a keyboard shortcut) to trigger the collapse/expansion of text?

I have sought this feature for some time now, and today I came upon both your question and this other post. Hopefully you will find it as useful as I did.From: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/onenote-help/keyboard-shortcuts-in-onenote-2013-HA102749248.aspx

https://superuser.com/questions/400418/shortcut-to-collapse-a-paragraph-outline-in-onenoteThanks for the information Starskimmer! I have been casually searching for this fuctionality in OneNote for over a year.
However, I have found that when I create the option to expand\collapse, the feature does not save in OneNote in the status the expand or collapse was left. Meaning, if I collapse only to see the high level steps in a process, I will close OneNote only to open and see everything expanded. Have you come across a Toggle that will remedy?
Thanks,
