OFFICE WRITER AND LIBRE OFFICE CALC
TO USE: Libre Office>Calc & Libre Office>Writer
SOFTWARE USED: LIBRE OFFICE WRITER AND LIBRE OFFICE CALC
What is Track Changes?
The Track Changes feature is an essential tool for collaboration,
allowing users to track edits, suggestions, and comments while
maintaining the integrity of the original document. It provides an efficient
way for multiple people to review and edit a document without fear of
losing any changes made.
It can be enabled in Writer and Calc from the ‘edit’ Menu:
Edit>Track Changes>Record:
Record Track Changes – Clicking on this button, turns on the Track Changes
feature. After this, any sort of editing done will be marked. Any character
added to the document will be displayed in a different color and any deletion
done will be seen in strike-through style
After making the necessary changes to the document, the user can use:
Edit>Track Changes>Manage or Edit>Track Changes>Accept/Reject
To accept or reject the changes. This window also shows the authors name
and time of edit.
CALC
WRITER
Manage Track Changes – By clicking on this button the Manage Changes dialog box is
displayed, which contains a detailed list of all changes made to the document along with
the author’s name and date and time of modification
Accept/Accept All Track Changes – Once the editing is done, the original author may
accept the change made to the document by clicking Accept All Track Changes button will
accept all the changes made to the document. (e) Reject/Reject All Track Changes – The
original author of the document may reject a single change or all changes made to the
document by clicking Reject Track Changes or Reject All Track Changes button,
respectively.
In Writer and Calc, Comments can be added by ‘Insert>Comments’ however
the way that they appear is slightly different. They can also be formatted for
user appeal.
Writer: The comment appears outside the document, on the same line where
the cursor is.
Calc: The comment is hidden in a tooltip on the cell where the cursor was
originally placed. A user can view the comment by hovering over the cell.
WRITER CALC
The comments show the Authors name, Date and Time.
Insert Comment – This button is used to add a comment in a document.
Comparing Documents: Once the reviewers have made the changes and
given their comments, Writer allows to compare the original document with
the reviewed document and then choose the option(s) that suits the best.
This can be done by ‘Edit>Track Changes>Compare:
This opens the file explorer from which we can choose the document we
would like to compare the selected document to:
This opens a dialog box where we can review the changes and choose
to accept or reject them:
CALC
WRITER
In Writer, all new text which is added turns yellow whereas all of the
deleted text shows a line struck through it for easy viewing.
In Calc, any changed cell has a red highlight to show the reviewer that it
was changed.
