screenshot with 2 navigation panes
Hi,
First, thanks to all developers and community members for such a great app!
I guess the following might be considered either a minor bug or a
non-well-documented new feature. I spent about 30 min till I realised what was
going on.
The issue arose when I called the navigation pane for the first time with F5 or
view/navigation pane. A floating navigation pane appeared but was undockable.
Since I was new to LO7 I spent about 30 min trying to understand why I could
not dock this navigation pane. I read the official docs and only mentioned
dragging it to the side, but this would not work nor other methods (e.g.
ctrl+shift+F10).
Then I realised that there was already a navigation pane embedded in the side
pane. Then I had 2 navigation panes open simultaneouly: the floating,
undockable one and the one embedded in the side pane (which can be undocked and
docked) (see attached screenshot)
So, either this is a bug, and only a single navigation pane should be allowed
at any time, and the one embedded in the side pane should open/expand when
calling the navigation pane. Or this is a new feature through which one can
have 2 navigation panes simultaneously, which should be explained in the
official docs to avoid confusions.
I hope this helps!
Best
Aleix
