Sometimes it is very useful to be able to compare two versions of a document or a Text Block. The ITP/MDK Repository offers this functionality with the Compare action. Any revision can be compared with another revision by right-clicking on a revision, selecting the compare action and selecting the revision with which the selected revision has to be compared, or select two revisions in the Content pane and choose Compare.
Selecting a document or Text Block and choosing the View my changes action in the shortcut menu will compare the [in development] revision with the [current] revision.
The result of a compare action is either a document showing the differences underlined and in a contrasting font color or a Text Block in which the changed are underlined.
Note
Text Blocks can only be compared if Microsoft Word is installed on the client. Refer to Spell checking Text Blocks for more information.
Note
`Compare´ is not available for OpenOffice.org documents.
