Microsoft Office for Mac 2019 using Word I am now unable to move headings under the navigation pane. Has this been removed from this version?

Well, more than a year passed and still unable to drag heading in the navigation panel.
In fact, the most missing feature for me is "Ctrl+drag heading" to duplicate heading\section. This makes everything faster if I'm writing a document where every page has the same "template" (style etc.) but only the titles and paragraph content are different.
Is there any ETA for those features? until then, I'll be using word inside windows VM :/
Thank you JohnKorchok, I will certainly add my vote for add this feature to the MacOS version. I can now stop searching and try your workaround.
Cheers!

Hi, I have this problem too and can't see the answer or the workaround to this. I'm new on here, am I missing something? thanks.
You can work around this problem by switching to Outline view. Then you can drag and drop headings to rearrange your text.
Thanks John, that works. (Though I'd prefer to be able to use the navigation pane which I'd used it before in Word for Windows on Mac, didn't realise the functionality was different.) Thanks again
