Notice in the image below that all the content below “Section 1” is collapsed up to “Section 2” because “Section 2” is the at same heading level (Heading 1) as “Section 1.” NOTE: When you collapse a heading, only the content up to the next heading of equal or lesser value is collapsed. To view the content again, simply click the arrow to the left of the heading again.
The content below the heading collapses and only the heading displays.
When you click on the arrow, the text below the heading is hidden. When you move the mouse over the space to the left of a heading, a right arrow displays.
To do this, you must use the Heading styles in Word to format the headings in your document.
