It would be nice to be able to collapse a Section (Headings collapsing is great but one needs a heading at the top and another at the bottom).
This could also be accomplished with a Hide Text option, once the whole Section is selected.
Section collapse
Re: Section collapse
I personally have a number of issues with this idea.
As far as I know, sections are not collapsible in MS Word documents. There would be no standard way to save collapsed sections to a document file.
Atlantis already has a feature that allows to collapse document fragments (chapters). Adding another feature that would do pretty much the same looks confusing to me.
Finally, when you “collapse a heading”, the heading itself remains visible in the document. How would a “collapsed section” be supposed to look?
I think equipping each section with a proper heading would be a better solution.

Re: Section collapse
That's what I started to do, but you need another heading after the section in order to collapse it, otherwise it's not delimited.I think equipping each section with a proper heading would be a better solution.
Another thing I'm doing is setting the section font to 1, which almost collapses it.

Re: Section collapse
I suppose a collapsed section could be completely hidden, and there should be a sidebar panel or a window featuring a list of all sections in the document with a show/hide button trigger. Or some tab menu, think of Excel hidden worksheets. Hidden sections don't necessarily have to be visually shown on the document like collapsible headings.
