------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon May 7 20:12:25 +0000 2007 ------- Wonderful news! If implemented properly, this feature could help OOo provide an advantage to MS Word. I used comments A LOT in my line of work (for which I currently switch from OOo to MS Word), and some critical features, IMO, are (some of these are mentioned below already:) - The portion of the text the comment refers to is highlighted when the comment is selected or moused over. - Comments can be displayed in three places: A tool-tip when moused over (please include the author name, currently missing), A balloon in the margin (as in MS Word 2003), and a Comment window (please make it a separate window, not at the bottom of the current window as in MS Word). - Threaded comments! Missing from MS Word and very important. Adobe Acrobat comments implements this nicely. Right clicking on a comment should include a "Reply" option, and the comments are nested accordingly. - Comment window: Like the Navigator window, lists all comments, in a threaded display. Comments can be selected, and using right click, presents users option to delete, reply, edit. When selecting a comment in the Comment Window, cursor is automatically positioned to where that comment is in the document. - In balloon mode or comments window, comments are highlighted with the color of the reviewer. Makes it easy to spot comments from a certain person. Comment Window feature: The ability to filter comments by reviewer (show only comments from a certain reviewer). MS Word has this. However, in addition - and this is something MS Word doesn't have - the ability to filter comments by document version. The point is this: You add comments to a file. You send to co-worker. They add more comments. You look at the file, but you really only want to see their latest comments, not all of the old comments that have already been resolved. If you could filter by document revision, then it would only show the comments since the document was last saved. If that's not possible, then at least a date filter (comments since such-and-such a date). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
