Outliner
The Outliner 2.0 is a fast and easy to use scene management tool. It has a wide range of features, including selecting, hiding, freezing, linking and grouping objects in the "Hierarchy Mode". In the "Layer Mode" you can organize your scene by dragging&dropping objects from one layer to the other. What's more, the Outliner offers support for nested layers, to manage scenes more efficiently. The interface is nimble enough to keep it open constantly.

Layer Mode (including nested layers)
Material Mode
Compared to the previous version (1.6.1), there are many improvements. Most notable among them are: hugely increased performance, improved stability, nested layer support and many small tweaks to improve the ease of use. For a list of all changes, click here

FIX (workaround)
I found similarities in this named selection set bug http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-3ds-max/autodesk-3ds-max--3ds-ma...
RickD has a temporary solution to fix that bug.
This solution works also with Outliner:
Edit the file
"C:\Users\Stephen\AppData\Local\Autodesk\3dsMax\2014 - 64bit\ENU\scripts\outliner\ui.ms"
Comment out the following lines (with two minuses(--)) Like this:
--cui.RegisterDialogBar outliner_main \
--minSize:[mainMinWidth, mainMinHeight] \
--maxSize:[-1,10000] \
--style:#(#cui_dock_vert, #cui_floatable, #cui_handles);
This problem seems to be only on Windows8... Right? And the temp fix breaks outliners docking.
Disclaimer: I know just about nothing about max scripting, but this fix works for me.

Do you have any tips on getting outliner to work in 2014?
Seems like it is crashing for lots of people.
What are your UI settings, etc.
Thanks.

3ds Max 2014 crashes
On my laptop Outliner crashes 3ds max 2014. Windows 8 64-bit, Intel integrated graphics 4000, 6 gb ram. Outliner works fine in 3ds Max 2013.
Weirdly enough, it runs fine on my desktop with Windows 7 64-bit, AMD Radeon 5770, 16 gb ram.
I really want to move on to 2014, but I can't live without layer nesting. My laptop is holding me back! Help!

Well, it seems that they once again managed to mess up the docking... That seems to have become a recurring tradition for each release.
Not sure if I can do anything about it at this point..
