Description lars 2003-07-27 17:43:19 UTC 
document overview for quickly accessing certain parts of a document


like Paintshop Pro offers for images, but just for "text-based" files;


this can be quicker than scrolling!

I'm changing components of some issues to ui ui from framework ui; am 
I right in doing so? not all: it'd be too much. Also I clarified some 
types from Feature to Enhancement

SBA: In Writer, the Navigator is already a helpful tool to get an
overview (i.e. to the Headings/Outlines and certain objects). 
SBA-> Lars: Maybe you should add some hints what you mean with
"certain parts of the document" to clarify.

SBA: Reassigned to Bettina from the User Experience team for
consideration.

I have some documents containing many images and descriptive text 
next to them. If I want to look up a certain part of the doc. I have 
to scroll using the scrollbar currently. But I don't get a good feel 
for how long I have to scroll. An "Overview" window should make 
orientation easier (and also less mouse movement, as it's a smaller 
window to scroll/move thumbs of pages in)

do you know PSPs overview window? (where you see a small version of 
your document (OOo should show eg. for Writer documents the pages as 
sequentially small pages (but so that one make out their content) 
which can be scrolled thorugh and dragged and moved))


issue 6352  may solve these needs  (continous zoom-mode in toolbar).

might be superfluous in the wake of the new zoom slider !
