OmniOutliner: Selecting Top-Level Items
This pair of commands can be used to select the top-level items of the currently selected item (row).
“Select…” will highlight the top-level items of the currently selected item (row), or all top-level outline items if no item is currently selected.
“Include…” will expand the selection to include the top-level items of the currently selected item (row), or all all top-level outline items if no item is currently selected.
NOTE: The currently selected item will be expanded to reveal its top-level items.
