            Bug ID: 143547
           Summary: LO Writer: navigator should stand still on promoting
                    and demoting
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.4.2 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:
In the navigator, outline of chapter heading is repositioned after each click
on a promotion/demotion arrow.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have a document open with an extensive chapter subdivision taking more than
the screen height to display in the navigator(F5).
2. Double-click a chapter further down in the navigator bar.
3. In the symbol menu on top of the bar, click on any of the promote/demote
arrows.

Actual Results:
The entire chapter outline in the bar is repositioned so the promoted/demoted
chapter gets on its top of the outline display space.

Expected Results:
Leave the position of the outline intact, rewrite only the particular
headline(s) affected by the promote/demote operation.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
This is especially disturbing for 'promote chapter' operations, since after the
first upwards step, the user can no longer see the target of the promotion
planned.

This bug appears to be new in version 7.
