Description amanda.l.hazel 2019-12-18 14:33:10 UTC
Description:
The freelance paralegal again. Another feature that would be extremely helpful is the ability to quickly delete headings from the Navigator sidebar. All of the legal documents I work with start off as templates with all the language for that document included. As I edit the document, I frequently need to delete certain headings and the underlying paragraphs if it does not apply to the case at hand. 

This is easily accomplished in MS Office when the Navigation sidebar (task pane) is opened by right clicking on the heading and then click "delete." I have not found a way to do this with LibreOffice Writer. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a document with headings and paragraph text under the heading.
2. Select a heading with the underlying paragraphs.
3. In navigator, there is no way to delete just that heading and paragraphs associated with that heading. You can move the heading up and down, and make it a sub-heading, but no way to quickly delete it from the document.

Actual Results:
I typically have to navigate to a section of the legal document that has a section that needs to be deleted and use the keyboard to select the heading and underlying paragraphs that I want to delete. While this is an acceptable method, when working with a 100+ page document this is a bit time consuming. 

Expected Results:
I would like a feature either via the Navigation Sidebar or maybe through a keyboard shortcut to delete a heading and the underlying text paragraphs.


Reproducible: Always
