Outline mode view

[i-Moi]

Hi,

NeoOffice almost fits all my needs, which are extended, since I use it for professional writing (novels, movies, plays). And the only reason I still can't definitely leave MS Word is the Outline View.

I also think that many students, teachers, lawyers, and any people who need to work on long and structurated documents may have the same problem :

NeoOffice, as OOo, can apply styles to text, such as "Heading 1", "Heading 2", and therefore structure the text.

But it doesn't allow the user to, e.g, only visualize the "Heading 1" text, then see also the "Heading 2" parts, and so on. (Things that I could do within OmniOutliner, but who wants to change software when working on the same text ?). It's one of the only things really well done in MS Word, so I really miss it. The day NeoOffice (then OOo too) does it... bye Microsoft !

Merci et au revoir de Paris, France !

try the navigator. it is not the same thing, but provides and easy way to get around a document. and some of the same features.

... that I had already explored with interest and precision the existing features of both OOo and NeoOffice, among which, of course, the Navigator.

It has interesting functionalities, and some have things in common with the ones I long to see in NeoOffice. But you can't see the tree-structure of the document, level by level, as an outliner or MS Word allows you to.

Best regards
