[Bug 915059] Re: Compare Document highlighting unchanged words as changed
Dear Christopher Thanks for your reply and for your thorough analysis of this bug. I have submitted this bug to the LibreOffice Bugzilla as you suggested. The bug report is on: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44847 Clearly, the fundamental flaws and weaknesses in LibreOffice Writer Document Compare have been an issue for very long, as is well documented on: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Track_changes Evidently, little if anything appears in fact to have been resolved here since OpenOffice itself was launched, more than 10 years ago now. Yet I cannot emphasize enough the importance in a professional document production and editing environment of a competent and fine-grained Document Compare functionality in LibreOffice Writer for document change identification, revision management and version control. I sincerely hope that both Canonical and the Ubuntu community help pushing this issue to the top of the agenda of the LibreOffice developers.

Leo H, thank you for reporting this bug and helping make Ubuntu better. The original Bug Description has been distilled to remove the opinions of Compare Document and focus on the bug itself. Despite the revamped Bug Description now being objective, specific, and simplified to what seems 3 results of the same root bug, it is asking potentially for three bug fixes: 1) ...one tan hyphen is shown to the left of 'LibreOffice Writer'... 2) ...'LibreOffice Writer' is not marked tan... 3) ...'LibreOffice Writer' is not marked...with a tan underline. This should not be met with resistance in the case that upstream wants to further break this up. In any event, the issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport . If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance. ** Changed in: df-libreoffice Status: New = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/915059 Title: Compare Document highlighting unchanged words as changed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/df-libreoffice/+bug/915059/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
