Why is this needed? > 2) You can drag and drop headers very easily, placing them into higher or > lower hierarchies easily as well. You can use the buttons above or the shortcuts ctrl+arrows to change the level and the position of headings. > 3) Content within the headers that are dragged move with it (Outline Folding > View mode in LibreWriter doesn't do this). The outline folding affects the document and not the Navigator. And moving a chapter up/down of course takes its content with it. > 4) Easy to see and understand 'shape' bullets that change with each > hierarchy. I don't understand "shape bullets". Do you mean the +/- and quote signs? How about the opposite view: these controls add a lot of noise, require more space, and distract from the navigation purpose. > 5) You can customize how many levels deep the Outline Mode lets you see. The buttons above the tree allow this too. Sorry if my reply sounds dismissive but requests with "make it like Microsoft does" miss the point of use cases. We allow to always interact with the Navigator, that is also more than just an outline view. Don't you agree this is superior to what Microsoft offers? There is nothing to say against a "distraction free" outline mode to enter the document structure before writing the actual text. But it is not the same workflow. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
