LyX-1.5 currently allows viewing the TOC only in a drawer instead of a dockable widget. With 1.6, this causes problems with full-screen viewing of documents: if the drawer is open when switching to full-screen, it does not appear in full-screen mode, and even after switching back to windowed mode it is impossible to view the drawer until LyX is restarted. This last part, at least, is a bug that I assume could be fixed,
At least this should be fixed.
but before filing a bug report, I thought I'd ask about what's possible with Qt. Is it a limitation of Qt not to allow viewing of drawers in full-screen mode?
Guess so. You should report it to Trolltech.
My preferences here would be as follows (rank ordered from most to least preferred): a) fix the drawer implementation to work in full-screen view (with windows visible) b) switch to a dockable/floating widget implementation, provided (1)-(3) can be fixed c) stick with drawers, not visible in full-screen view, but fixing the bug I mentioned at the beginning. Any thoughts?
d) switch to a dockable widget when working in full-screen mode and switching back to drawer when leaving full-screen mode.
