Thanks 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,

Chris
