Bug ID: 141481
Summary: Navigator toggle keyboard shortcut (F5) not consistent
in behavior with the Stylist (F11) or other sidebar
modules
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.0.5.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer

Here's something that has always confused me in the way the Navigator behaves.
When you press the F5 key to show/hide it, it behaves totally differently from
the others like the stylist (F11). F11 always toggles the visibility of the
sidebar (or floating window) containing the stylist (or switches to the stylist
in the sidebar), but F5 always the navigator as a "second sidebar"... and when
you have a docked sidebar currently shown, F5 creates another sidebar to show
the navigator instead of switching the view of the already shown sidebar.
So it ends up looking fairly messy like the screenshot you see in attachment
#170942.
To me, it would make more sense if F5 toggled on the visibility of the sidebar
(and switches to the navigator section of it, if it was not already shown),
just like F11 does for the stylist. *If* the sidebar was undocked then in that
case yes I "could" imagine the navigator being its own secondary sidebar, but
otherwise it's just stacking multiple sidebars in a weird interaction pattern.
