Info

Hints and tips

Modifications made when tracked changes are enabled are highlighted as blue, underlined text for newly inserted text and red, strikeout text for deleted text

The right-hand panel > Review is useful for managing tracked changes and comments.  In this view the edits are presented in a compact form, in the order they appear in the document and each edit is marked with a type-specific icon. 

You can use this view to quickly navigate through changes, accept or reject them, or to add and manage comments for the changes.

You can also search for specific changes and it includes some filtering options (for example, you can filter it to only show certain types of changes or to only show changes for a particular author).

  • Click on the under the Review heading for further help on explicit filters for a more fine-grained control.

  • If you attempt to edit the document when the “View Original” mode has been selected, the view mode will switch automatically to “View all Changes/Comments”

If you use “View Final” or “View Original” mode, the callouts are not displayed for comments or changes

If you copy content from the Editor that contains tracked changes, the changes will automatically be accepted prior to the content being copied to the clipboard. This filtering is performed only if the selection is not entirely inside a tracked change.

Some operations are not marked with tracked changes because of the extra ‘behind the scenes’ work that is involved in their implementation.  These include things like deleting quoted structures or deleting the penultimate subsection/paragraph in a section/regulation.  These are known limitations and we will be stopping this disabling of tracked changes for these operations based on feedback from live users.
