I understand that maintaining and developing Sigil is KevinH's and DiapDealer's hobby and that they receive no pay for their work. I have the greatest respect for their taking Sigil on and the work they have done. If it was not for them Sigil may well be slowly dyiing if not dead.

I love Sigil and use it daily but like all the programs people use there are things that they would like to change so that it would be "perfect for them".

I am therefore not asking for these changes but throwing out ideas for changes to Sigil in the hopes they may fit in with their ideas for developing Sigil in the future.

1. I am definitely not suggesting "Book View" be brought back but I liked having an icon to switch between "Code" and "Book" views. When getting rid of Book view was being intensively discussed. I repeatedly suggested that the old Book view icon be used to invoke Preview.

I understand Kevin's argument that the toolhars are overcrowded as it is. A Suggestion Have an option to either allow the Open External Editor" icon to either start and external editor OR do the equivalent of a F10 and bring up the Preview window. Alternatively an option to assign F10 to a plugin icon should work equally well.

2. Unless I am doing something wrong I cannot get Code View and Preview to dock like the "TOC" and "Book Browser" widows can, i.e. they will not overlap and show the window name on tabs. The best I can do is to have Preview as a third column. I would liked to be able to switch back and forth between the largest Code View window possible to an equally large Preview window either by icon or tab.

I will repeat I am definitely not suggesting "Book View" be brought back

While I am a long time Sigil user I am still finding new features and ways to use it my advantage so if I have missed some things that would give me the above please enlighten me.
