            Bug ID: 137153
           Summary: VIEWING: Navigator sidebar not dockable
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.1.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: christianw_lehmann at arcor.de

Description:
I can dock the Styles sidebar as expected. I can exchange it for the Navigator
bar. (By this procedure, I can even, uselessly, have a Navigator sidebar and a
floating Navigator simultaneously.) I can drag it from the right side to the
left side of the editor window. What I _cannot_ do is have the Navigator bar on
the left side and the Styles bar on the right side of the editor window. The
current help text
(https://help.libreoffice.org/7.0/en-US/text/swriter/guide/resize_navigator.html?&DbPAR=WRITER&System=UNIX)
lies about this: "To dock or undock the Navigator or the Styles window, hold
down the Ctrl key and double-click on a gray area in the window. Alternatively,
press Ctrl+Shift+F10." These actions do not work.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a document in Writer.
2. F5.
3. CTRL-doubleclick or CTRL-SHIFT-F10 on a gray area in the Navigator bar.

Actual Results:
CTRL-doubleclick: Nothing.
CTRL-SHIFT-F10: Context menu for headings pops up.

Expected Results:
The Navigator bar should dock at that side of the editor window where it has
been floating.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Alternatively, the following would be a useful procedure: Drag the sidebar to
the desired position, and it snaps in (as it is the case with other toolbars).

This is a regression. Docking the Navigator bar on the left side of the window
while keeping the Style bar open on the right side used to be possible in
earlier LO versions.
