Re: outline view postioning annoyance

Vern,
Yeah, after playing with it a while I understand why it does it - I just want a simple way to tell it 'I'm positioned where I want to be, now let me collapse this list and leave the cursor where it is'. I've found I can work around it by opening another view, collapsing the list (the cursor repositions in the second view, but not the first), and then closing the unwanted view. It's a little cumbersome, but not that bad. I'm still open to a better way. If there isn't one, maybe this could make another entry in Violaine's enhancement list?

When you click the minus, the statement number is no longer there -
of course - so it won't stay positioned to it in the source - the
outline puts you in the D-spec cuz that is where the field is
defined. Which of several statements would you want it positioned to?

I don't know a way around this, except not to click on the minus!

Scenario: I've expanded Fields, expanded one of the fields, and
clicked on a statement number to position the cursor where I want
it.  I'm happy.  Then I click the minus by the field name to
collapse the list of statements, since I don't need to see that
anymore, and the cursor repositions to the D-spec for the
field.  This is NOT what I want to happen - I want the cursor to
stay where it was!  Is there some trick I'm missing on this?

Thanks in advance.
