I don't think it is yet perfected. ------------------------------------------------ New in Lyx1.4x http://wiki.lyx.org/0.6.15/pmwiki.php/LyX/NewInLyX14#toc3 Change tracking This new feature, similar to that found in Microsoft Word and others, makes collaboration on a document a cinch. It provides a way to track changes made to a document, and later approve, reject, or modify such changes. To freeze a document for change tracking, use the Document?Change Tracking menu: [[uploads:/NewInLyX14/change-tracking-menu.png uploads:/NewInLyX14/small-change-tracking-menu.png]] When enabled, any edits made to a document are tracked. Deleted text is marked in red and struck through, whilst added text is marked in blue; in addition a changebar is added to the margin. With the dvipost software installed, such marks can even be exported to PostScript and PDF. [[uploads:/NewInLyX14/change-tracking.png uploads:/NewInLyX14/small-change-tracking.png]] Send a change-tracked document off for review to a colleague, and let them make changes - when you receive it back, you can use the Merge Changes dialog to review his changes. [[uploads:/NewInLyX14/merge-changes.png uploads:/NewInLyX14/small-merge-changes.png]] Once all marked changes have been processed, change tracking can be disabled again to allow normal editing. --------------------------------------------------- mot juste, cyberdiction
Hi TechTonics, The one feature that I've mentioned is the real time communication, real-time math discussion, and real-time collaboration. I guess it is not exist in the current version of LyX. any more thoughts?
