Jonathon, Before you criticize a writing tool perhaps you should learn or bother to read. No one in this thread is suggesting that Outlining can't be done in OO. We all have tried it. I, for one, gave it a month of daily use, thinking the Navigator could suffice and I just needed to adapt my workflow. It did not and never will. So not "currently provided." When I work on technical docs, I use outline mode for just about everything. No one is saying this is a bug. This is a feature request--that the task of outlining become much more usable. Who knows? Maybe they could come up with something that was better than Word. I love much about Open Office. I eagerly installed and used it. But this was a show-stopper for me (and others, it would seem.) So, while I watch this list on the slim chance that someone will tackle this feature I don't expect it. But I (and whatever percentage those of us in favor of this feature represent) won't be reinstalling OO anytime soon, either. It's a shame but there it is. It's trolls like you who come in to muddy the waters and keep OO from gaining a feature that could increase market share. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.
