Description Unknown 2002-06-21 15:57:32 UTC

In revise mode, there is no menue item for neither "accept changes" or
"discard(?) changes".  Everytime I do this, I have to go to tool bar menue,
"Edit" and then "change"(I have foreign language version, so I don't know
exactly what you call this item).  This is so inconvenient and hofully fixed in
next version.

This should go into Word Processor - UI, I believe.

Comment 2 rialnis 2002-12-08 23:26:19 UTC

I think that this should belong in the UI - Writer section as well.

HI: This is not defect, it's a feature.

Comment 5 Unknown 2003-10-29 01:35:33 UTC

I would really appreciate this feature.  It would make revising
documents much easier.

Comment 6 michelezarri 2006-03-21 09:11:55 UTC

For my clarification: is this a request to add two entries in the context menu
when right clicking on a word/sentence with revision marks? if not I will open a
separate issue for that.

Cheers,

Michele

I agree with the reporter of this issue. If one is working on a document that
had many changes done, it is very difficult with the way this is handled in OO
to find one specific change and accept it without having to work through all the
other changes. In MSWord, when right clicking on a changed text (modified by
another author and now in colour and underlined), then there are four additional
menupoints : 
 * accept change : this accepts the change under the right-click position
 * refuse change : this refuses the change
 * record changes : switches recording of changes on or off
 * accept or reject changes ... : opens the window for changes

For really missing in OO are the first two points, which permit to rapidly
accept and reject certain changes, even in the middle of a 100 pages document
which has been worked over intensively. Working on documents is often not linearly.
Another resolution to this problem could also be that the window that is opened
by the menu point "Edit/changes/Acceptor Reject"  should show/highlight the
change on which the cursor is positionned.
Thanks in advance for considering these enhancements

To grep the issues easier via "requirements" I put the issues currently lying on
my owner to the owner "requirements".
