How to install Glade on macOS

Possible you need Glade, but you use macOS and won't change your OS or use any virtual machine. You can install Glade on your macOS using Homebrew. Three simple steps:
Open a Terminal.
Enter a first command: /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install.sh)"
It will download and install Homebrew on your macOS. 
Note, you should be enter your admin password two or three time during that process.
After end of Homebrew installing enter a second command: brew install glade.
So now you can start Glade with command glade in the Terminal.

Navigator imprevements by Jim Raykowski

Jim Raikowski, one from LibreOffice's developers, has made many very nice Navigator improvements for Writer and Calc.
- Navigator's categories are gray if they don't have any items. It works in Writer and in Calc Navigators.
- New items Go To, Edit, Delete, Rename were added for all objects context menu in Writer's Navigator (Headings, Tables, Frames, Images, etc.)
- New items Promote/Demote level and Promote/Demote chapter were added to Headings context menu in Writer's Navigator
- Added a new feature "Outline tracking" for Headings in Writer's Navigator. You'll can find it in Hedings context menu in the Navigator. It can be in three states: Default, Focus, Off. Try click by your mouse in several place in your big text document with many headings. You'll see that Headings in Navigator will be selected automatically according to text cursor position.
- It was replaced the navigation toolbox with the navigate by elements control. 
It all will be available in future LibreOffice 7 release in early August 2020. But you already can try it right now if you'll install a LibreOffice's daily build from https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/current.html.
Thanks Jim for your great work!
