This is a valid request. A couple of years ago I had to deal with a big outline where massive node management (copying/moving/cloning) operations were required. I ultimately did everything manually, but it required a huge amount of scrolling back and forth through the outline pane. I didn't post to group then for many reasons:
- I am trying to make a suggestion / request a feature only after I bump into a problem at least twice. Sometimes I would try to do something with leo, fail to achieve my goal and abandon it. However, after a while I'm eventually back trying again. This may take a couple of months though, but meanwhile I learn a thing or two more about leo which sometimes helps progressing. - I am the guy who contributes not that much to this group and unfortunately almost doesn't contribute to developing leo at all. So I don't think it's fair to ask lots and give back much less. But I try pulling the trunk on a daily basis and read the group. I can see the titanic work Edward does every day and I avoid bothering him too often with my minor issues :-) But leo is evolving, it becomes better, it moves into the right direction constantly and this is enough to keep me happy. However, this is a good place to estimate if there are many people in the leo community who may need a particular feature implemented. Two outline panes would certainly come handy in specific situations when big amounts of copy/move/clone node operations are needed. Two pane file managers are still a whole era in user interfaces, there's no conceptual difference between a filesystem and a leo outline after all. Think of norton commander/dos navigator/total commander/midnight commander (I happen to still use last one on a daily basis and I am very happy with it). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
