--- Comment #1 from Luke Kendall <l...@zeta.org.au> --- I wish someone could find time to work on this enhancement (or even https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38726) - it's desperately needed, for the production of high quality documents. When tracking changes, a document can quickly become so messy with the visible deltas that you can't see what it would look like with the changes applied. And if you do accept the changes, LO then automatically jumps to the next change, so in general you have a lot of scrolling to do to locate what you just did, and you lose the "visual diff" you'd get from your own short-term memory at seeing the changes applied. It makes what should be a simple task, enormously difficult. I tried simply turning off "Show changes", and using the new Changes toolbar to move from change to change. It's not ideal, though, as there is only an indication of a specific tiny change, so you get no indication of whether there are any other changes nearby. I also discovered that if you accept a change, then it also turns the Show Changes back on. Nor can you see and accept a whole bunch of changes in one operation. The workaround I've had to adopt is to introduce a spurious change somewhere below a set of changes I wish to accept/reject (like adding a space at the end of a paragraph below), then selecting the text before that, then right-clicking and accepting (or rejecting) changes. I can of course also accept/reject individual changes as I wish, so this approach gives me as a user excellent control. If I'm happy with the result, I then delete the just-added space and move to the next set of changes. Another option for the extension might be to add 3 more controls on the Manage Changes dialogue: Checkbox: turn off automatically advance to next change Next change button Previous change button. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
