# HTML Outline

The HTML Outline command allows you to view an HTML rendered version of the requirements file as it appears in the Outline Editor. Included in the HTML Outline are all metadata, document information, body sections, package rules, instances, and the field grid. This feature is often used in testing a requirements file. The document opens in your default web browser as a single HTML page.

You can access HTML Outline by selecting Assembly > HTML Outline or by pressing Ctrl+Shift+H. HTML Outline is available for dynamic documents only.

Following is an example of the HTML outline as displayed in a web browser.
