How to Create Blinds - move a blind
1. Click to insert new element and choose Blinds from Miscellaneous in the Template Gallery.
2. Click the round gear to show this screen:
3. Enter the Title. This is what will appear as a link with a plus sign next to it. Clicking the red link will open the blind to display more information.
4. Enter a Group (optional) - if you want blinds to close automatically when a different blind is clicked. Use the same Group name for each blind.
Note that inside the container, the top gear is for the blind. Inside the blind is a new container where you can add a text element. Make sure you click the top "insert" to insert information for your first blind. (The bottom "insert" would be what you click for the next blind.)
5. Choose the Formatted Text Block from the Element Gallery and define it to enter your hidden information.
6. Add additional blinds by clicking the bottom element to add the next blind.
You can change the information in the blind by editing the data for the element.
A topic can be an entire sentence or even a paragraph (but you cannot change the format which is paragraph).

Open Blinds for Editing
Blinds should appear opened when you are in author mode and will not show up as blinds until you Submit.
If a blind is closed in authoring mode, you can open it by clicking it. You can also use "Actions" in the dark blue menu bar and click "Clear & Update Page Cache" (at the bottom of that list) to open all the blinds.

Blinds cannot be copied and pasted in their entirety - but they can be moved. Click the round gear for the blind, click More, choose Move Up, Move Down, Move to Top, or Move to Bottom.
