Bug ID: 160764
Summary: Request: Set the Navigator viewport to default to
Headings rather than Sections
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Issue: When I do not have any sections defined in a document, the Navigator
viewport (in the Sidebar Deck) defaults to showing my position in the Headings
(unless I click on an image, table, hyperlink, etc., when it then shows the
object I have clicked). Once I define sections, LO defaults to show which
section I am in rather than which heading. (To be clear: Clicking in the text
of document has the viewport show the heading of the text, which is very
useful.)
Defaulting to sections rather than heading is not helpful for me and likely
some perhaps very many users. I for example have many headings and very few
sections, so knowing what section I am in is not useful.
Possible Solutions:
1. Rethink whether Headings should have precedent over Sections. If so, change
the default behavior.
2. If you decide Sections should still be the default, add a user option (in
Options or wherever appropriate) to allow the use to change the default
behavior.

Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
Aside: I have documents that use two columns of text (set in Page Style). On
rare occasions, I need a part of page to be in just one column. The is achieved
through use of Sections, so I cannot avoid using Sections in these cases.
