Hey Bill,

Legend has a feature called an “Overview” - if you click on the hamburger icon in the top left of a Pane it will show an overview of all of the documents (and their children) to show where you are, and you can click around in it to zoom. Is that what you’re looking for? Or can you point to an example of an overview done really well that I could check out?

Stephen,

There is actually a feature for setting default configurations :). Right click on a Board and “Save view as default” then later you can “Restore default view”. Is that what you’re looking for? I can definitely see how that right click menu is not very discoverable though - we’ll have a think about adding a button to open that menu.

Hi, Jay,

It doubles my appreciation for any app when I suggest useful features and find they already exist. Yes, that default view feature is what I was asking about.

However, I don’t even see a hamburger icon in the pane. (Just to be clear, I know that a hamburger icon is three horizontal lines.) At the top left of a pane I see 1. Show documents button; 2. Pane name; 3. Edit pane name icon. That’s it. How am I missing it?

Thank you!

Steve

Oh sorry, I meant the Show Documents button. It was a hamburger icon for so many years that I forgot we changed it ߘ. Clicking that opens what we call the “Overview.” We may want to change the tooltip to “Show Overview”?

Thank you for the clarification. I’ve looked at the Document overview many times, but I haven’t thought to unfold the headings to navigate through my outlines. I will be interested in hearing what Bill thinks of this as a solution for his concern.

Is there a way to export a document from Legend?
