------- Additional comments from nrtula...@openoffice.org Mon Feb 8 07:23:04 +0000 2010 ------- I want to push back on the "multiple views don't matter, just do Outline now" outcry. drhatch was right to point out that this is the bottleneck, but wrong to focus on the "multiple simultaneous views" aspect. Mathias explained that the motivation for re-factoring the layout code is to support new views cleanly. The ability to see a document in different views simultaneously will be one result, but that is not the main reason for doing it. First they are reorganising the existing modes to support views in a more modular way. Then they can deliver several new views, not just Outline, more easily, and hopefully more stably, than writing separate standalone view modes. I have hankered for an outliner in Writer for years now. I learned to use the Navigator and "Outline Numbering" as recommended, but it really isn't the same, so occasionally I am forced back to Word just for outlining. But if the delay is caused by Doing The Right Thing, then I can wait a bit longer. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
