Description: The navigator bar has a 'focus' mode for 'outline tracking'. This folds up chapters not currently focused. It does not, however, fold up any other items which are not currently focused. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open a document that has numbered headings, tables, comments and such kinds of items as are listed in the navigator bar. 2. Press F5 to show the navigator bar. 3. Move the text cursor into a table. In the Navigator bar, the tables are listed. 4. In the Navigator, right-click on a heading, activate 'Outline tracking: focus'. 5. In the Navigator, double-click on some heading. Actual Results: Text cursor moves into the intended chapter; other chapters fold up. Fine. Tables, comments and other items that were shown remain listed. Expected Results: Once 'focus' mode is selected for 'outline tracking', everything else should fold up again. This includes tables, comments and everything else. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: This is a new bug in LO 5.
I think this is intended. For example if you double-click on an element of another list, e.g. an hyperlink, the navigator shows the chapter in which this hyperlink is. It would be bad if the hyperlink list was then closed, in that case you would have to reopen it to choose another hyperlink if needed. If you do not want see other lists than outline, you can click on the first button on the second line on the top of the navigator to restrain the view to this list. Closing as NotABug. Please, feel free to reopen if you disagree. In that case please add more arguments. Best regards. JBF
I currently only have LO 7.0.4.2 on Windows 10. This behaves slightly differently. If you move the text cursor into a table, the "Table" list on the Navigator remains folded up (closed). You can open it manually by clicking the ⊞ symbol. From then on, v. 7.0.4.2 behaves as I reported for 7.1.4.2; i.e., the Tables list remains always open. It thus appears that two new "features" (if you don't want to call them bugs) were added stepwise: v. 7.0.4.2: Once unfolded, the Tables list in the Navigator remains always open; the only way to close it is to click the ⊟ symbol. v. 7.1.4.2: If the text cursor enters a table, the Tables list in the Navigator unfolds. It then remains open as before. Such a behavior may be preferred - as it is apparently preferred by you - if you had selected 'Outline tracking: Default'. With 'Outline tracking: Focus' selected, it should not happen. In the discussion of Bug 136692, Jim Raykowski implied that it was just the purpose of the option 'Outline tracking: Focus' to concentrate the display of the Navigator to the position that the user had double-clicked. Now as for your advice to click the first button on the second line, this is inscribed "List Box On/Off" in v. 7.0.4.2. In my installation, it is always checked, so I cannot test what it does.
works as designed -> enhancement
Jim, Heiko, what do you think about this?

This is the first button on the second line that Jean-Baptiste referred to. It switches between the display of all categories in the Navigator and the selected category. hth
(In reply to Jim Raykowski from comment #5) > hth Does it help, Christian?
Sorry, Jean-Baptiste & Jim, I did not follow your numbering of the lines. Yes, this button does solve the problem of someone who only wants to see the headings. It remains to stipulate what exactly the function 'Outline Tracking: Focus' is supposed to do. As I said, this apparently changed in the most recent versions.
