Description Johannes Rohr 2012-03-14 00:31:48 UTC
One of the last reasons I still have to resort to using MS Word from time to time is that the traditional method of visualising changes inline is causing too much clutter on the screen and makes it very hard to read the text I am proofreading. Therefore I would like to recall OpenOffice "issue" #9661 which has been around for ten years now: https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=9661

It is great that LibreOffice now display comments in the margins. The same should be done for changes, and I feel it should be done sooner, rather than later...

Never confirmed by a QA member (or even a 2nd person). Moving back to UNCONFIRMED. In the future please do not set your own bugs to NEW. Thanks

I have not touched this bug at all.

But I kind of agree: It would be somewhat unfitting to set a bug to "new" which, counting in the original report, has been around since 2002-11-29. *Sigh*

Looks like a dupe of bug 34355 to me.

Kind regards,
Joren
