TreeJack - how do you create the tree?

This might seem like a dumb question, but how do you format the structure of your tree when inputting it?

Hi JJ,
After creating a survey and giving it a name and web address etc, you will need to initially save the survey. Once the survey is saved, you will be able to add the tree structure into a textbox that is provided. You can choose to:
a) paste a tree from a spreadsheet or text file
b) enter your tree directly
When formatting your tree, make sure that each item is on its own line, and that the child of any entry is indented with respect to that entry. In a text file, you can achieve this with either tabs or spaces, but not a mixture of both.
Here is an example:
Level One A
Level Two A1
Level Two A2
Level Two A3
Level One B
Level Two B1
Level Two B2
Level Three B2A
Level Two B3
Level One C
Level Two C1
Level Three C1A
Level Four C1AA
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Evan

Thanks Evan.
Actually I had formatted it correctly, but I didn't realise you had to save the tree and then create a task before you could see it working properly.
It would be good to be able to click through the tree at the point you are creating it - that way you can really tell if you've formatted it correctly or not.
Thanks again.
