TeXworks ⇒ Does TeXworks display a navigator?

[Montag]

Hello,
because I finally encountered the typical "GUI framework" error with my TXC and MikTeX 2.9 (and the usual solution doesn't help ), I'm looking for another editor.

Does TeXworks have a navigator that can display the document structure (\section) and included files (\input)?

I don't think so... or at least it didn't last I tried it.

Texmaker and TexMakerX do. You might try one of those. (I recommend the latter.)

TeXMakerX really seems so overloaded. Like ... totally.
That's why I started looking into TeXworks.

It has something like that, but it's kind of hidden:
Window --> View --> Tags

Wow, somehow I missed that. Sorry. That seems to be a trend with TeXworks -- it has a bunch of features that are there but not very obvious. Very nice to know. Thanks.

Really? Compared to TeXnicCenter? I thought only Kile compared to TXC in featuritis. Maybe the regular Texmaker (without the X) would be more your style. Nowhere near as loaded.

Thanks, torbjorn. But it doesn't seem to work for commands like \input. Grml ... :/ Or am I wrong? Because then TeXworks would seem like a good
choice.
BUT ... to whom it may concern: To set the default font in the editor to MS Shell in 8pt, that was quite a shock.

I don't know Kile, but all the colors in TeXMakerX and auto-completion features and buttons to click on ... woah. Or it may be very well the csae that I configured my TXC "down" over the years, but IIRC I only change 3-4 settings after my last re-install.

No, currently there is no support for this, it seems:
http://code.google.com/p/texworks/issues/detail?id=6

As mentioned at the bottom there, this feature won't be implemented until a project feature is added, but when/if the developers will switch focus toward that, I do not know.

Thank you for answering my questions.
