Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 25891
Show changes: Implement the function of not showing deleted Text like Word does
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:41:21 UTC
When printing revised documents I need to identify changed lines with a vertical bar beside the affected lines - I do not need to see the deleted text. This could be done easily in StarOffice 5.2 by setting Changes-Record on and Changes-Show off with Tools-Options-Text documents-Changes-Attributes all set to [none] and Lines changed set to Right margin. This configuration does not produce the revision bars in OO ver 1.1 - or has it been intentionally deleted?
Hi frankben, thanks for using and supporting OpenOffice... Did you do the following: Edit -> Changes -> Record needs to be selected Edit -> Changes -> Show needs to be selected cc'ed mci
Hi frankben, I change this to an Enhancement wish since OOo works as designed...
changed Summary from "lines revised side bars not behaving as expected" to "Show changes: Implement the function of not showing deleted Text like Word does"

Thanks for valuable feedback (via prviate email): " I loaded OO 3.0Beta and it is still faulty. To reproduce the fault: Tools > Options > OpenOffice Writer > Changes & set Insertions Attributes to [None] Insertions Color to [None] Deletions Attributes to [None] Deletions Color to [None] Changed attributes Attributes to [None] Changed attributes Color to [None] Lines changed Mark to Left margin Lines changed Color to Black open any text document then Edit > Changes & set Record and Show on then delete some text Left bar appears but text is not deleted (hidden) on the screen. (It would re-appear of course if the change was rejected under 'accept or reject'. This function worked fine on Star Office 5.1 and is the way Word behaves i.e. you can read a .doc file OK with this setting but you cannot write to or change it."
