Hello Philip,

The Navigator pane is great … as long as the headings are not too  
long. I know I can resize the pane by dragging the vertical border  
line to the right, but that will inevitably also narrow the text  
body. I thought having the headings cross-referenced and placed at  
the beginning of a document where I can see all the headings in *full  
length* would maybe give me a better orientation – especially by  
documents I haven't written myself (downloads from web pages, for  
example.) I have assigned Menu Keys to "Previous Selection" and "Next  
Selection" from the Edit menu and use them to quickly jump up and down.

The problems I run into are:
  If I start a macro with

Cross-reference

Press Button "Insert"



the highlighted button named "Insert" will NOT be pressed as we might  
expect. It seems the macro command "Press Button Insert" does not  
work here.

Assuming it would work, is there any way to simulate the down arrow  
key in a macro in order to move down to the next cross-reference?
