I have a multi-file document (about 10 child documents), and I was wondering if there is any way to generate an output document that highlights the changes made. I know about the excellent "track changes" feature, but I was not enabled when I made the changes.
I'm using version control, so I can generate a diff of the raw lyx file, and I can diff the generated pdfs, but neither of these yield a particularly legible output. I just tried turning on "track changes", then pasting the new version over the old one, but the change tracking then accurately highlights that I deleted the entire old version, and created a new one, rather than doing a diff-type comparison. I'm trying to do this so my PhD supervisor does have to read the entire 230-page document again to examine the changes I've made. Any suggestions? Thanks, Cameron.
