--- Comment #5 from carrt7 <car...@gmail.com> ---
Thanks for the suggestions. The need for saved searches still remains.
The arguments against are:
1:"Libreoffice doesn't need such techniques, cause it's not about searches..."
Sorry, this is not correct. LibreOffice WRITER is ALL about
creating/editing/collating documents. This frequently involves skipping from
one section to another of a multi-page document.
2: "the tool for what you like it's the navigator"
Navigator is ideal for repetitive editing, such as updating a large instruction
manual every time a new model of the device is introduced. It is not useful
for one-off document editing, because you would need to know which areas you
will need to revisit in future.
Working with a large document, an Editor will think "Ah, I should move that
other section where the supply fails after the first few occasions to here".
The next day, suppose he encounters a third section relating to the same issue?
He needs to be able to locate the original searches easily to find the
location.
3: "Bookmarks"
Bookmarks will help you see what resources you used yesterday, but not where
you put them in your created document. Also, unless you foresee needing the
resource again, you will not bookmark it.
4: "Extensive searches might be best carried out using Loook... (3 "o"-s)"
Yes indeed. But most LO users are not familiar with Python or Loook. As you
point out, "the saved searches is familiar from websites..."
Please consider adding this feature to LO Writer.
