The Outline

was known in earlier versions of LyX as the
\begin_inset Quotes eld
\end_inset
TOC
\begin_inset Quotes erd
\end_inset
, since its original purpose was to display the document's table of contents.
The Outline has become much more powerful now, however.
In the pull-down box at the top of the outline window, you can choose between
several different lists, including other TOC-like objects, such as lists
of tables and figures, but also lists of footnotes, or labels and cross-referen
ces (see
\begin_inset CommandInset ref
LatexCommand formatted
reference "sec:Cross-References"
\end_inset
), or notes, or citations (see
\begin_inset CommandInset ref
LatexCommand formatted
reference "sec:Bibliography"
\end_inset
).
Clicking on any of these will take you to the corresponding object in your
document.

Right-clicking on elements in the Outline will in many cases open a context
menu that will allow for direct modification of those elements.
For example, with citations, the context menu allows you to open the citation
dialog and to modify the citation.
Right-clicking a change will allow you to accept or reject it.

wish to see only references to subsections, you can enter the text
