Shortcut/feature request - DT as an outliner

More and more I have been using DT3 as my main writing and reading software. One thing I tried to accomplish via apple scripting (but eventually gave up, seeing that it would be more difficult that what my current knowledge allows me) is organizing/sorting files using the keyboard. That is, moving a record/group out of/into a group and moving records up and down inside a group.

E.g.:

Scenario 1 - Out of group

  • Group x
    • Record/group } Selection

Press shortcut: βŒ₯⌘[
Turns into:

  • Group x
  • Record/group } Selection

Scenario 2 - Into a group

  • Group x
  • Record/group } Selection

Press shortcut: βŒ₯⌘]
Turns into:

  • Group x
    • Record/group } Selection

Scenario 3 - Up and down inside a group

  • Record x
  • Record y } Selection
  • Record z

Press shortcut: βŒ˜β†‘ or βŒƒβŒ₯βŒ˜β†‘
Turns into:

  • Record y } Selection
  • Record x
  • Record z

Perhaps this is already possible somehow? In case not, I humbly introduce it as a feature request :slightly_smiling_face:

This isn’t possible and at least right now there are no plans to support outlining, I’m afraid.
