Re: [libreoffice-users] Proofreading problems...

Hi :)  ]
Weird!  Have you been able to try another document to see if that now
works, ie if LO just needed a nudge before it works for all?  If that is
all solved now that would be great but if each document needs to be nudged
in the same way that could be really painful! (and probably easier to
report as bug because it's less like an intermittent bug)

I imagine the "track changes" tools is good when everyone is using the same
version of MS Word or when everyone is using non-MS.  The rest of the time
it might be easier just to use the "compare documents" approach instead.  I
vaguely remember someone saying that track changes was more elegant and
sophisticated but obviously only when it works!

Regards from
Tom :)
