Collapsing outlines

This simple tip will collapse a currently expanded bit of an outline when switching to another collapsed part of the outline.

First, in the Embedded Outline Property select "Collapse All".

Then, make each Top Level entry link to the first view/page of the sub level.

It's that simple -- but it has made my apps look that much snappier.
