------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Nov 23 03:41:01 -0800 2005 ------- The Navigator is SUPPOSED to serve as a MAP of the document. But it has a major limitation: A map is useful only if you know your current location in the map. But the Navigator does not tell you where you are at present. Compare this with the "Style and Formatting" window, which always highlights the current style. Likewise, the Navigator must highlight the current item (i.e., table, heading, figure, frame, etc.) Note that the user can make sense of only the "Heading" entries in the Navigator, because he can read the actual text of the headings in the Navigator box. But all other items (e.g. Tables) are identified by number, which makes no sense to him. So he can't use the Navigator alone to identify which table he wants to jump to. For example, suppose your document has a lot of tables and it is your intention is to navigate through these tables. In that case, the Navigator will show a long list of tables, but will not tell you which table you are at. The only way you can identify your current table is to look up its number from the status line; and then to look up that number in the Navigator's "Tables" list. Locating a table number in the Navigator is not easy, because the list is not in ascending order; and many numbers may be missing (if you had deleted some tables in the document). Worse, you cannot renumber the tables. The same problem also applies to all other items (e.g. images). So, like the "Styles and Formatting" window, synchronize the Navigator also with the document. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
