Tracking Change functoin?

Post by takama »

Hi,

Does Flare have tracking change function (like a word)?
For example, the modified portion is automatically hightlighted or revision bar is added on the side of the modified portion when modifing the text or image.

No it doesn't. I use a text editor, UltraEdit, that has a compare feature, which is handy. And if you store your files under source control there will be a compare facility.

But it would be handy in Flare as well, particularly for the editing feature - you can submit a feature request at:

Revision bars

In div style, a left border can be set in Stylesheet Editor.
This style may be applied per Medium.
This can be applied to tables, too.
When needed, apply the div style to a paragraph or line of text.
Results vary based on how margins are set for a document.

Although your idea is certainly valid, you’re offering it in a 9-year old thread. In the intervening years, a Track Changes feature was added to Flare. I’m offering this for benefit of any new Flare users. See http://help.madcapsoftware.com/flare201 ... hanges.htm

RETIRED, but still fond of all the Flare friends I've made. See you around now and then!
