The new structure tree in the TIM Review Service ensures more clarity and productivity in the review with a simple entry point
The search function in the structure tree allows you to search for specific content and find it quickly, while showing and hiding the structure tree allows flexible adaptation to individual preferences.
In addition, opening and closing the substructures or subchapters makes navigation within the structure tree much easier and allows you to maintain an overview even with extensive collections of information. Targeting specific chapters is particularly useful for accessing relevant information directly without having to scroll through the structure tree for a long time.
