[Solved] LibreOffice missing OpenOffice feature for bookmarks

Post by LeroyTennison »

In an OpenOffice document with bookmarks, if I right-click the lower-left corner of the document I get a list of the document's bookmarks from which I can click and immediately go to it. This doesn't exist in LibreOffice and searching the web isn't producing anything other than "Open Navigator ...". Is there a feature similar to this in LibreOffice?

LibreOffice and OpenOffice work the same in this respect.

The functionality you describe is available on the status bar. You enable display of the status bar from the View menu.

Thank you for your reply. The Status Bar is enabled. What i had to discover is that i have to right-click the page number area instead of the left-bottom corner.

LibreOffice Help: Insert Bookmark
To jump to a specific bookmark, press F5 to open the Navigator, click the plus sign (+) next to the Bookmarks entry, and then double-click the bookmark.

You can also right-click the Page Number field at the left end of the Status Bar at the bottom of the document window, and then choose the bookmark that you want to jump to.
