Re: outline view postioning annoyance

["Dave Shaw" <daveshaw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

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?
