Compare (or revision marks) for X-Edit reviews?

Post by Cecily »

I've just sent a few topics for review using X-Edit for the first time.

It was all pretty straightforward, for me and the reviewer.

I ticked "Allow Reviewers to Edit Content", which avoided the hassle of creating and then implementing annotations, but I can't see what she has changed.

Have we missed something: I gather there isn't a track changes/revision marks function, but is there any way to compare the two versions (other than line-by-line, by eye), or should I log it as a feature request and meanwhile ask reviewers to make an annotation by each change (which will no doubt annoy them)?

If it's not there it does seem to limit the usefulness rather - unless anyone can suggest a better workflow.

Thanks.
