show two TOC's. one movable and one not movable
MRU->OS: a TOC is a kind of protected section, thus Alt-Enter should also work there. Please have a look, if this could be solved for 2.0. Put ES on cc of this. I think, it's duplicate to issue 25280. The TOC must be write enabled (first tabpoage of the index dialog: "Protected against manual changes") *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 25280 *** closed You are, right, it's the same case as Issue 25280 But I believe it's not practical to chenge the protection so as to move the toc. Besides, when you want a protected toc, and want to create a new line before it, you should unprotect it, create two(!!) new lines and protect it again. If one line is created and something is typed in it, protecting the table leads to data loss. I thing the best way is to be treated as sections. Alt+Enter should create a new line without changing protection. thanks I don't follow you on your argumentation. Why is a TOC protected by default? TOCs are always generated automatically. Every update of a TOC delete the modifications the user has made manually. So, the meaning of the default protection is NOT to protect the TOC's content but to prevent the user from editing it (because those changes would get lost with each update). In other words: a protected TOC will always render the settings defined in the TOC dialog. An unprotected TOC is an advanced feature, wiich allows the user to customize the automatically created content of a TOC. Thus unprotecting a TOC gives more flexibility (Ex: setting the cursor in it and insert new lines before) and protecting a TOC gives the user the guarentee his TOC will always look the same (even if updating). So I don't understand your point because: - I created my TOC automatically, I like it like it is - I unprotect it to insert new lines -> nothing gets lost. After updating an unprotected TOC, This won't look different from the protected TOC. Ok, I understand the procedure you are talking about. Of course, as you say, you don't protect the data you enter anymore. If accidentally you protect the toc you lose the data. One way that you can be sure of your data is 1. Create the TOC 2. Unprotect it 3. Use Alt+Enter (not just Enter) twice, so as to create a new line outside the toc's region (and before it) 4. Protect the TOC, so as to avoid accidental loss. What I am suggesting is the ability to use Alt+Enter on the protected TOC (as in protected sections), so you can skip this procedure and be safe about the data you enter (I understand it is silly to protect the toc when having data entered in it's field, but you can't be to sure). Hope I have become more clear. Target changed to Later (not broken) *** Issue 42785 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** Problem is not in protecting or unprotecting TOC. If user inserts TOC on the first line of a document, then he can't insert a line or page break or write a text *before* it (not in the TOC, but *before* it), but if he inserts TOC on second or later lines of a document, then he can insert a line, page break or write text *before* the TOC. Reset assigne to the default "issues@openoffice.apache.org". Reset assigne to the default "issues@openoffice.apache.org". According with previous comments *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of issue 25280 *** |
