WD98: Document Map Width Not Retained (180214)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Word 98 Macintosh Edition
This article was previously published under Q180214 SYMPTOMS
When you close and reopen a document that contains a Document Map area,
the width returns to the default size. Your custom setting is not retained.
In addition, the width is not carried over when you open additional
documents during the same editing session.
CAUSE
Word automatically sets the Document Map area to one-fourth the width of
the default window. The width of this area is not saved when you save and
close a document.
This is a design limitation of the Document Map.
WORKAROUND
After you open your document, resize the Document Map pane to the desired
width.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Word 98 Macintosh
Edition.
MORE INFORMATION
The Document Map area is a vertical pane then extends down the left side of
the document window. It displays an outline of the document headings. You
can quickly move through the document by clicking any of the headings in
the Document Map. Word automatically displays the Document Map in Online
Layout View, but you can display it in any view. To do this, click the
Document Map button on the Standard toolbar or click Document Map on the
View menu.
