<pre>Navigator is a great tool to get an idea of the structure and complexity of a
document. You can quickly navigate to an object by double-clicking on its name.
On documents with rather a small number of "objects" (tables, frames, images,
sections, drawing objects -- not checked for OLE objects, hyperlinks and
references), the order in which they are listed is not that important since the
list is short.
But as soon as the list contains several dozens of elements, being able to
clicking designate the desired objects is of prime importance. Even if a
systematic naming scheme is adopted, it is not immediate to point to the right
one.
Headings and Comments lists are ordered in document appearance, bookmarks in
alphabetical order.
It looks like the others are listed in chronological order (i.e. how they were
entered in the list without further processing). This makes the lists quite
unusable.
Could it be possible to sort the lists, either in document order or
alphabetical order of the names?
Maybe document order would be preferred by the majority of users who don't give
a specific names to their objects.
What I say above is probably also valid in Calc and Impress. Draw, Math and
Base are out of the way.
