When reviewing track changes the Manager dialog the list of changes can be sorted by Action, Author, Date and comments. The order in these list does not follow the order of appearance in the document. As consequence, approve/reject individual changes forces the cursor to jump back and forth in the document turning the revision process tedious because it breaks the comprehension of the text. Actual results -------------- When approving/reject changes, the cursor jumps back and forth in the document, in the order displayed in the Manager dialog. Expected results ---------------- The list of changes should follow the order appearance of the text, in which the changes can be better understood by the reviewer and revision process quicker. Further comments ---------------- As discussed with Heiko, An additional column in the Manager can sort the changes in the appearance order, making it easier to review.
Sorting according different needs makes sense. So we should keep that. But an opportunity to sort by the appearance in the document is missing. Can we perhaps add an empty column, label it #, and sort respectively? Jim, you have done some work around TC recently. What do you think? According Olivier, a workaround to get back to the sequential sorting is to close and reopen the document.
