How to add a title to a cell and then collapse it?
Aaron Fude
I can't figure out how to add a title to a cell and then collapse it.
I start a new notebook and then start working in the In-Out mode, but
then I want to be able to take my blocks, give them a title and
collapse them. How does one do it? Nothing worked when I tried to
follow documentation.
Thanks in advance!

Have you read and followed the document titled, "Notebooks as Documents"?

Hi Aaron,
input to cells, one with the title and one with the body.
select both brackets on the right display side belonging to your
cells, group them together pressing <CTRL><SHIFT><>G>, doubleclick on
the inner cell bracket which should stay visible, the other one will
hide.
regards robert

Thanks. I am completely unable to figure it out. When I try to add a
subsection (Alt-Enter) it instead adds another section below and I am back
at square one. I am not able to produce a section with two or
omresubsections - one for title and one for the rest of the stuff.

Thanks Robert. Now here is what doesn't work for me. When I combine
two sets of cells like that into "Sections" and then try
<CTRL><SHIFT>G to combines the two "Sections" into a "Chapter", I
instead get one "Section" with four cells. Is that the intednded
behavior?

Try moving below the Section cell. Then use Alt-5 to specify the
Subsection style and start typing the Subsection title, or whatever.
NOW if you type Alt-Enter, even before moving below that Subsection
cell, you'll create another Subsection cell.
Alt-Enter just creates another cell of exactly the same Style as the one
you're currently in.

titles, sections, subsections, but I am not able to produce any kind of
hierarchy, such as combining a subsection with an input into a group then
putting two such groups inside a section.
I'm trying to have to following structure:
| TITLE
| __________________
| | | Section I
| | | Input section
| __________________
| | | Section II
| | | Input section
I would be very appreciate if I am able to figure this out!

Notebook, or Global, option CellGrouping?

First: I suggest you select your nb and click on menu Window -> Show
toolbar
so you can see/set clearly the style of a cell.
Second: if you wish to collect the sections under a higher cell, you
must first create the cell (above the 2 sections).
This cell should have a higher hierarchy , say subsubtitle or higher
(look in the drop down menu that you got with the first step.
So : click above the 2 sections, select the style from the drop down
menu and create a higher cell.
Now you can use ctrl-G selecting the higher cell and the 2 sections.
I also find useful most of the time to select Cell -> Grouping ->
Automatic Grouping from the main menu bar.
In this way the Grouping is done by Mathematica for you (a higher cell will
group with the lower ones below).

This makes it clear what you want but not entirely clear what
you are starting from. I will assume you have something like:
__________________
| Section I
| | section 1 stuff
__________________
| Section II
| | section 2 stuff
If so, click in the area above Section 1 so you can create a new
cell above that section. Enter your title then select the cell
by clicking on the cell bracket to the right. Now go to the
menubar and select Format->Style->Title. That will change the
selected cell to a Title and all of the cells below will become
subcells to that cell.
