Sorting Information in Notebook Software
The Page Sorter view of Notebook software provides a comprehensive, scrollable view of all
pages in the current Notebook file. This panoramic perspective allows you to see more clearly
how your pages can be optimally arranged and labeled
−
just as though you physically spread
the pages out on a desk to view them all at once.
A Side Sorter is also available in Normal view. This vertical strip contains thumbnail views of
all pages in the current file. These thumbnails are automatically updated as the content of the
pages themselves change. Use the Side Sorter to press and drag objects from the current
page onto the thumbnails, open any page by pressing on the thumbnail, or change the visible
area of the current page without scrolling.
