FrameMaker 2022 Navigation Panel

FrameMaker 2022 comes with a Navigation Panel. And while it does give an excellent overview over your document structure, I am confused about the right click feature "Select Heading and Content". As far as I can see, nothing is selected when I do it. I am running Unstructured FrameMaker. Structured may be different.

How is this feature supposed to work? I would expect it to select an the section indicated, so I might, for instance, copy/paste...

    Excellent question, Bjørn.

     

    From HelpX:

    • Select Heading and Content: Select the heading and content that is a part of the selected heading. In case the selected heading has child headings, then all such content is also selected.

    • Delete: Delete the currently selected heading and its content.

     

    In v17, Select Heading and Content doesn't do anything and Delete removes the very first character. Same in v16.

    Thanks @Barb Binder Seems it doesn't work in Structured either. I am very fond of that facility in Word where it is possible to reorganize content i an controlled manner by merely dragging the headings around in the Navigatin View.
