How To Manage Document Structure Using Plannerly

Breaking Down Documents into Sections

Plannerly breaks down your documents into sections, which serve as bite-sized, reusable pieces of content. These sections act as containers that keep everything organized, allowing you to structure and group your document’s content automatically. With Plannerly, you have complete control over how your document is organized and displayed, making it easy for users to navigate and find the parts they are interested in.

Categorizing and Hierarchical Structure

Plannerly allows you to group sections into categories. Categories act like folders, and this categorization enables better organization of your content. Furthermore, you can easily move sections between different categories, ensuring flexibility and adaptability in your document structure. Additionally, you can indent sections to create a hierarchical structure.

Another beautiful thing about Plannerly is that you don’t need to worry about manual numbering. As you drag sections to different parts of your document, the tool automatically assigns the appropriate numbering based on the hierarchy. This automation takes away the hassle of manually updating section numbers, allowing you to focus on creating and managing your content seamlessly.

Version History for Collaboration

Furthermore, Plannerly offers a comprehensive version history for each section. This feature allows you to track changes made to your content over time and identify who made those changes. By having a complete version history at your disposal, you can easily revert to previous versions if needed, ensuring document integrity and collaboration transparency.

Conclusion

Plannerly makes it easier to structure and organize your documents. Its automation of managing content in sections simplifies the process, allowing you to focus on creating content rather than dealing with the complexities of formatting and numbering. The ability to group sections into categories and hierarchies gives you more control and flexibility in organizing your content.
