Description Roman Kuznetsov 2020-09-15 19:21:17 UTC 
Description:
Hide Navigator window in Impress/Draw and always show only Navigator Sidebar section 

In Ipmress and Draw we have Slide pane and Page pane in Left side of main window and when we open Navigator then it opens near these panes and it looks ugly in general.

I suggest hide different Navigator window in Impress and Draw and show only Navigator in the Sidebar for these modules. Include action by main menu and by shortcuts.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Impress
2. Select View-Navigator (look at screenshot in attach)


Actual Results:
We have unnesessary Navigator window in Impress/Draw and Navigator Sidebar section

Expected Results:
We have only Navigator Sidebar section


Reproducible: Always

Slide pane and Navigator in one column

Possibly a better solution is to open Navigator below Slidepane?

No, please read bug 73151.

Then yes I'd agree that when it is docked, it conflicts with the Slide sorter--as in attached clip, or with any other Toolbars that are docked left.

But in bug 73151 you'll see the rational for retaining the second Navigator (shorcuts: Impress is <Ctrl>+<Shift>+<F5>, other modules <F5>) remains valid, especially for Impress presentation editing where the other Sidebar Decks are constantly in use editing slide content and effects.

By default the "secondary" Navigator pane (really just a copy of the Navigator Deck/Content panel held in the SB) is a Floating frame--though the see also bug 81902 had suggested making it docked. That probably should not happen for Impress, but either case it is simple to dock/undock the frame.  Drag it away, or use the <Ctrl>+<Shift>+<F10> global shortcut.

IMHO, -1 and => WF as the second Navigator deck is still needed until SB dev work for bug 85905 gets some love.

There might be users with different workflows or non-standard UI configurations who close the slide/page panel. And attaching the Navigator below is pretty easy.

I agree with Stuart on the WF.
