Description raindrops 2006-01-20 08:05:31 UTC 
Navigator should have a section that shows inserted fields.

The field editor window allows the user to load and edit one field at a time. 
He can not see more than a field at a time.

Provide a fields section in the Navigator. 
Let the user view all fields in a panoramic view and select the field he is
interested in.
He should be able to launch the field editor straight from the Navigator.

(This has another advantage: In Issue 60616, I have suggested that Navigator
should be searchable. When Fields are added to navigator, the user would be able
to search for a given field. Currently there is no facility to search in a field.)

Reassigned to requirments.

small addition: could be more useful to have a single navigator for fields where
the types of fields can be listed as subcategories; like the FormControl-Navigator.
Comment 2 raindrops 2006-01-20 08:48:14 UTC 
Yes, of course! 

I thought a tree structure was the only way to go! (where a generic title
"Fields" is broken down progressively in braches and then sub-branches; to
represent the different types and varieties.)
