Bug #: 43514
Summary: UI: Need an easy way to get from current position in a
document to the corresponding position in the
Navigatior dialog's header tree
Classification: Unclassified
Product: LibreOffice
Version: LibO 3.4.3 release
Platform: Other
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Status Whiteboard: BSA
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Problem description: Documents can be large and complex. The Navigator's
Header tree is a handy way to find your place in a document as you need only
drill down the header tree to the branch of interest and double click.
Unfortunately doing the opposite is not supported.
A way to easily go from the document to the corresponding location in the
header tree is not available.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open a document, a specification for instance, with several levels of
headers.
2. Move down the document many paragraphs.
3. Wish you knew if the text you just read is part of the spec's Overview, or
Background, or Detail Requirements, ie. which sub-sub-sub paragraph the text is
a part of. The header tree in the Navigator would show you if there was a
handy way to pop the Navigator open to the tree branch corresponding to the
current location in the document.
Current behavior: Moving around the document has no effect on the location
shown on the Navigator's Heading tree. Pressing f5 always opens the Navigator
with just the level 1 headers displayed and Headings selected.
Expected behavior: Moving around the document also moves the location
displayed in the Navigator's heading tree. Or perhaps there could be a right
click menu option to pop open the Navigator to the current position in the
document.
Platform (if different from the browser): Fedora 16 with XFCE
Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:8.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/8.0
