Description gregorytechsoft 2008-10-02 08:31:34 UTC 
In the case of Styles, I'd like to see the "hierarchical" choice be taken out 
of the combo box -- IMHO _all_ style views should be hierarchical, even page 
styles. This can be handled in an interesting manner, via syntactic coloring of 
items.
For example, if the user wanted to see custom styles, everything could still be 
shown in a hierarchical manner, but the native, non-custom styles could be 
shown "grayed out" or a lighter gray color which indicates it is not a custom 
style...

I do not think, that the view in the Styles window should always be hierarchical
- sometimes one may wish to have an alphabetical list of the styles. 
So I would prefer to add a button, that toggles between hierarchical and
alphabetical view.

A button would be acceptable to me, also. But I still would like to see Styles 
hierarchical in some manner for all subtypes (including character and page 
styles).
