# Focusing On Notes

Focusing or “hoisting” a note focuses the view on it and its descendants. Expanding the view returns the focus to the the note’s container. These commands are available in chart and outline views.

- select Focus View from the View menu

> OR

- select Expand View from the View menu

#### Identifying prototypes

In outline view, the note icon for notes which can serve as prototypes is now surrounded by a light green circle. This helps distinguish notes intended to serve as prototypes. See the Prototypes section of the Notes chapter for more information.
