I'm with Kevin....I'd love having the page number in the instant details box...that would make research papers much easier! Thx.

It seems to me making it the default would be good, but I like the suggestions of JT and Kevin where it can be set in preferences to work as the user prefers. Great tip!

yeah, make it a preferences option... what i'd like to see is page references to the print edition in the instant details... but that's just me...

Default makes good sense. Perhaps it can be added as an option in Preferences.

I vote for default.

I would agree - this should be the default. If I am using it as a true browser, I can always just scroll to the top. But when I am in an article, I think the overwhelming majority of the time I would want to see where I am in the tool.

Thanks for the tips. It helps us use this awesome - but at times almost overwhleming - tool.

In Christ,

Bret

I have to agree with Bryan on this one. Make it the default.

It would make sense to me as we'll for the table of contents to open focused on where I am in the article. That's how I often use the TOC. if I'm using it to browse the tool, I'm often starting at the top, which would naturally open the TOC at the beginning. Thanks for the tip.

There have been many times I've considered pushing for it to be the default, but I always find myself wondering if that would be counterintuitive or frustrating to users who use the Contents browser primarily as a navigation tool. Would they wonder why the Contents would never open to the beginning?

We can certainly consider such a change if enough of you request it.

This is such a great tool that it should be the default! When I click the contents when I'm anywhere in the tool, it should open drilled down. Then for those who don't want that, the option click could be not drilled down. Because it seems (and maybe I'm wrong) most people would prefer to see the drilled down view when working in the tool?
