Hi all,
Thank you so much for the outline view on LyX 1.6.x. You need two or three
more buttons to make the outline view fully functional:
* Insert
* Delete
* Maybe "Insert Subservient"
The Insert function inserts a new heading, at the level of the current
heading,
Useful indeed.
The Delete function deletes the current headline and everything subservient to
it. This function should have an "are you sure" screen, and maybe highlight in
the document view everything that will be deleted. No need for a keyboard
mapping --- this should not be done thoughtlessly.
I am not sure the "are you sure" thing is needed - instead, "undo"
will reinstate anything deleted by accident.
Or make it a two-click button:
* First click marks the stuff to be deleted, and moves (some of) it into
view in the main window if needed. The button changes to something
that indicate deletion, such as scissors.
* The next click deletes the stuff, and resets the button.
Any other action except scrolling (to see what will go) should
also reset the button and remove the marking.
This at least avoids the dreaded popup.
