--- Comment #45 from Eyal Rozenberg <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Telesto from comment #43) > I) I might have misused phrase baseline baseline (as we've used it here) = the document without the tracked changes (i.e. what you would get if all tracked changes were rejected). > II) Do you mean that case C 4 (below) shouldn't be used or exist in a proper > workflow. Instead a comment should be made? > > Example borrowed from comment 26 > > A) baseline: "Hello World" > > B) Insertion by BOB: ", this is a great" with track changes ON. Result: > "Hello, this is a great World" (change-tracking shows ", this is a great" as > inserted text) No, the result is "Hello World", with a suggestion of an addition ", this is great". And I stress this phrasing, because the baseline is what is already agreed upon, while tracked changes are just suggestions or proposals. > C) Options for Alice > > 1) Accept: "Hello, this is a great World" = changed baseline (the change is > no longer tracked) > 2) Reject: "Hello World" = baseline > 3) Do nothing; Nor accept; nor reject > 4) Reinstate: "Hello[, this is a great] World" = baseline + tracked > rejection by Alice (text in [] appears as deleted text). No, that's not the result of option (4.). The result would be: "Hello, this is a great World", with a suggestion to remove the ", this is a great". So, like I said above - Alice would certainly not choose option (4.) if she opposes the change. Should would choose (2.) if she has the authority, or (3.) + add a comment about her objection. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
