Applying Filters to the Document List
When you apply filter criteria to the documents list, it only changes what you see in his list. The filters do not affect the actual document itself.
This helps prevent applying filters to the wrong document by mistake. If you want to filter information within a specific document, please use the filters available inside that document instead.
Document Navigation
Outline
The outline contains the hierarchical structure of the document.
Outline Navigation
In Yonder, the outline combines a traditional hierarchical structure with clickable breadcrumbs for easy navigation.
As you move down through the hierarchy, parent chapters remain visible, allowing you to navigate back up by clicking any parent entry.
Show / Hide Outline
You can easily hide / reveal the outline by clicking the "Expand Sidebar' icon:
Back to Document Root (Outline Home)
Clicking the icon on top left of the outline will reset the outline to the root.
Outline Color-Coding
You can easily navigate from a chapter to any upper level directly by clicking the corresponding entry in the list. All interactive elements appear in standard blue:
- Black Outline Titles: The title serves as a structural element in the document but does not contain any content of its own.
- Blue Outline Titles: A blue title indicates the entry contains content. Clicking the title displays both the title and its content.
- Blue Chevrons (right): A blue arrow pointing to the right next to an outline element indicates it has subchapters. Click the arrow to expand and view the subchapters within the outline.
-
Blue Chevrons (left): A blue arrow pointing left next to an outline element indicates you can navigate back up in the hierarchy. Clicking the chevron returns you to that level in the structure.
Warning: Displaying hidden chapters in the Compact Mode
Should an editor hides a chapter from the outline, readers using Compact Mode (the minimized single-column view on iPad or iPhone) will be unable to see the hidden chapter in the outline.

Swiping Gestures
Yonder includes support for swipe gestures, allowing for a more intuitive and efficient navigation in the content. Users can perform various actions, such as navigating between Content Flows, or within a Contentflow (e.g. virtual page), simply by swiping in different directions on their screen.
Up / down
Swiping up or down you can scroll through the virtual page (also called ‘Content Flow’).
Left / right
By swiping left or right, the content will navigate from virtual page to the next one (from Content Flow to Content Flow).

Per default, the currently valid document version (aka revision) is shown. To select a different version, please click on the ‘chevron down’ arrow beside the document title:
A warning message will be shown, that a currently not valid version is opened.
- Expired (invalid since <date>) for versions in the past
- Not effective yet (Revision will be effective on <date> for released but upcoming versions
-
