[Framers] "Secret" Freeze Pagination Feature

[Stefan Gentz]

Hi Shmuel,

thanks for your answer. I'm not sure if I completely understand the requirement. Do I understand right, that you would like to be able to define a specific style (e.g. "Heading1") in some sort of "Repagination Warning Setup" (dialog) and whenever you add or remove content somewhere that makes one of the paragraphs tagged with "Heading1" on some other page move to some other page you get a warning message? (Same for the table example you mentioned.)

Plus: I'm just wondering right now, if a feature that automatically warns you when you want to save as PDF / print that your automatically generated lists (TOC, IX etc.) are "out of sync" and recommends to update them. Would that be useful?

Hi Stefan,

Instead of freeze pagination, what I would like is a pagination warning. 
This feature would, when turned on, warn you when a paragraph with one of the user-specified specified styles moves to a new page, and when some rows of a table end up on a new page. This would be helpful when editing a doc, so that you know when the pagination changed and the TOC needs to be updated, or to look over the tables to see where rows moved to a new page. For extra credit, the feature would also provide a list of where these changes occurred. This would be a great help. Many times after a few edits, I find myself reviewing the entire doc to see where the headings appear and updating all the TOCs just in case a heading, table caption or figure caption, moved to a new page.

The current feature the way it is is pretty much useless to me.
