Revision marks (bars)

Tue Feb 22 09:06:42 PST 2011

Similar to what I do, except for one important (to me, a critical) difference.

After selecting the text, in character designer, the first thing I do is set "Commands->Set Window to As Is", *before* selecting/deselecting the "Change Bar" button and applying the character format.

Else I might clobber *other* paragraph / character format settings to the text that I needed the change bar on.

We do all of our change bars manually:

	1. Select the text that you want to mark.

	2. Open the character designer.

	3. Check the Change Bar button.

	4. Click the Update button. Make sure that you don't use Update All.

To remove the change bars, do the opposite:

	1. Select the paragraphs or text that includes the change bars.

	2. Open the character designer.

	3. De-select the Change Bar button.

	4. Click the Update button.

I would really like to make the use of revision bars to indicate changes made to a document that I am working on. I am aware of automatic change bars. I don't think this is the best option because it indicates all changes with a revision bar. I would like to be able to handle which "revisions" get highlighted as a change. I seem to recall the use of character tag or something along those lines but that method seemed to have some drawbacks. The criteria that is most important to me is being able to remove the revisions marks when going from version
2 to 3 so that the next set of revision marks only indicates the changes in version 3 and not versions 2 and 3. Has someone developed a "bulletproof" process or methodology for handling revisions to documents?
