Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 63759
Inserted notes do not show author
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:43:03 UTC
Inserted notes do not show the author who has inserted it, neither directly in the text, nor in the window that opens when hovering over the note. One needs to double click on the note and open the edit field to see the author. This can pose a problem when several different authors have worked on a document : the changes are nicely coded by colour, so one can see rapidly who has changed what, however the notes have to be opened one by one. It would therefore be nice if either the notes have the same colour as the recorded changes for this author (an option that automatically switches from the yellow rectangles to coloured ones when changes have been recorded for more than one author), or that the author is shown in the yellow rectangle or that at least the hover-over windows shows the author. Thanks very much for considering this enhancement Oliver
Reassigned to ES.
Reassigned to Requirements
assigned to mod
Work on a new implementation of notes has started
Just correcting some flags in this issue.
Further on this: if the use has entered their *name* but no *initials* in the User Data preferences box, then the note does not include details of the author at all.
fixed in CWS notes2, author is now shown directly inside meta information. Author is talking from Name and initals
