Hi great video, I have one doubt hope you can help me with that. How to hide (not collapse) only one type of heading OR heading after a particular level lets say I want to hide all level after level one? Else can we take a print of document upto a particular level only (other levels hidden not collapsed)?

Hi, did you mean that you want to have empty white space in place of particular heading say level 1?

What if I have Appendices like Appendix A, B, C. etc., and I want them as level 1. is it possible? I saw tutorials that suggests making them as level 7 or so, but the reason why I want them as level 1 is because I have figures in my appendices and I want to number them as Fig A-1, A-2, for Appendix A, and FigB-1, B-2 for figures in appendix B, and so on

[@pickupbrain]

You can use the method shown in th-cam.com/video/Lke0kZ8xh1E/w-d-xo.html. Please let me know if it worked.

Thank you for this great explanation!.
I have a question, how can I add a lower level heading to multiple headings????
I cannot do this by hand because I have too many headings (More than 200).
For example, if I have this:
"1. Country
1.1 City
2. Country
2.1 City
....
200. Country
200.1 City"
How can I add a level 3 heading to all these titles? without copypasting because that would be very time-consuming.
"1.1.1 Description
2.1.1 Description
....
200.1.1 Description"
"Thank you a lot.
