            Bug ID: 121847
           Summary: IMPRESS: slide marking on side pane lost when
                    switching to notes view
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.0.6.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Impress
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: mathematikus at gmx.de

Description:
When switching from "normal view" to "notes view" the marking of the slide on
the left pane disappears.

This behavior has been disturbing my for years now. Because this is a normal
workflow for me to change some notes in my slides (needing the notes view for
this) and then change some content of the slides (needing the normal view for
this). And each time I need to figure out again on what slide I was before I
can proceed with my work.  

I know there is a workaround (search the tiny page number display on my slide
even in the notes view) and then click onto the icon with this number at the
left pane. But this is bad "usability". I would be happy if this (very small)
feature could be improved in some future LibreOffice release.

Steps to Reproduce:
Here is how to reproduce it:
* In the "View" (german: "Ansicht") menu of Impress, turn on the option "view
pane visible" (german: "Symbolleiste Ansicht")
* open a presentation document with several slides (not just one), I assume
that it will be opened in "normal view" mode (where you can edit single slides)
* use the left side pane (where all slides are shown with a small icon) to jump
to a differen slide, let's slide number 7. The icon of this slide 7 will then
be marked (underlayed with a color) in this side pane.
* Now use the Icon "notes view" on the top, to switch to the "notes view"
(where you can edit the notes of the slides)
* result: the marking of slide 7 on the left side pane is gone :(

Actual Results:
Slide icon (on left pane) not marked any more

Expected Results:
Slide icon (on left pane) marked as before in normal view


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Slide icon (on left pane) should stay marked in the "notes view" as it has been
before in "normal view"
