Thank you for adding the Page Label property option. I love it already. But it has stimulated another wanna-have.
I can see myself labelling pages directly from Bookmarks. Now, I have to F2 the Bookmark, copy it, go back to the page in the thumbnails panel and paste that into the Label block of Properties. Wouldn't it be so much easier if there were a Bookmark tool or option to 'automatically' apply the Bookmark title to the Page Label?
And the reverse? Create Bookmark titles from Page Labels?
You opened a can of worms with this new feature, didn't you?

Re: 386 Feature Request: Apply Bookmark to Page Label
Hello PHK,
A Bookmark is not required to point to a specific page. It could be opening a web link or executing some JS and then going to a page, so I do not see that Feature request as an easy one to approve by our devs, however I will ask about their thoughts on it!
Kind regards,
Stefan

Re: 386 Feature Request: Apply Bookmark to Page Label
Sorry, but perhaps I was not sufficiently clear: I only want the TEXT of the Bookmark Title to be the Title of the Page.
I understand and respect the variety of actions a Bookmark can perform.
I hope this is easier to accomodate.

Re: 386 Feature Request: Apply Bookmark to Page Label
Hello PHK,
Yes - I understood your request - however a bookmark technically can be pointing only to a n external resource and no page in the file it is in. It's also possible to have more than one bookmark pointing to the same page (and maybe different parts on it) - e.g. if you have a heading at the start of the page and then 2-3 subheadings on the same page - each with their own bookmark.
So there are quite a few nuances to be considered here, and as such it might be rejected, and you could need to continue to copy those bookmark names manually.
Kind regards,
Stefan
