Description
Maybe this is for RStudio instead(?)
Have not until today used RStudio for a presentation; experimenting with quarto and reveal.js.
MS Powerpoint has a really great feature - an outline view that lets you type slide titles one after another, and then indent or not. Each slide title results in a new slide; if indented, it results in a bullet on an existing slide. You can drag the slides around in this view (and in other views), altering the order of the presentation. It is a great efficiency when you're trying to figure out what topics you're going to cover and in what order, before you even decide on content details.
I know it's a lot to ask quarto and/or RStudio to have all desired features but this would certainly make prototyping/outlining a presentation much faster. It would be great if this could be put somewhere on the list of desired features, perhaps in lowest quartile.
If it should be moved to RStudio, pls let me know. Thanks.
