  2. Select a section.

  3. Click on the Lists tab.

  4. Either:

    • Select a list and the select File > Open Selected to open it, or

    • Right-click in the Lists tab card and select Create New List... from the displayed menu; then enter a name for your new list in the displayed dialog.

A list editor is very simple: all you can do with it is:

  • Add content items to the list and remove them.

  • Reorder the list.

To add a content item to the list:
  1. Select the content item you want to add (in the search results list, one of the section's inboxes/ other lists or your clipboard).

  2. Hold down the left mouse button and drag the content item to the required position in the list.

  3. Drop the content item by releasing the mouse button.

To remove a content item from the list:
  1. Select the content item you want to remove.

  2. Select Edit > Remove or press Delete.

To reorder the list:

Select one or more content items in the list, drag them to a new position and drop them.

You can use the Views button in the top right corner of the editor to change the layout of the list in the editor. There are three layouts available:

Detail

The default view.

List

A simplified view with no images.

Thumbnail

Image thumbnails only.

The Views button only affects how you see the list in the editor. It has no real effect on the list or its contents.
