Viewing revision highlights

The View Revision Highlights command lets you view all changes that are registered in a technical publication.

About this task

As each revision of a technical publication is released, registered changes are added to the revision highlights report. In this report, you can view all of the Emergency Rapid Action Changes (ERACs), or just high priority changes. You can also view all changes made in the current or previous revision of the publication. The Emergency Rapid Action Changes (ERACs) are always displayed at the top of the report, regardless of the version selection.

When you select a change, SDL LiveContent S1000D opens the document containing the change and navigates directly to that change. If Highlight Changes has been specified from the Settings menu, the change is highlighted.

Procedure

  1. Open the publication. In the top bar banner, click the Information button, then click Reports.
    The Reports menu appears.
  2. Click View Revision Highlights
    A Revision Highlights Report window is displayed.
  3. In the Revision Highlights Report window, click the desired revision from the list.
    The value of the <change /> attribute is noted:

    • MODIFY
    • DELETE
  4. Click the blue link next to the value to locate and display the change in the publication.
    The location of the change is denoted with a yellow arrow.
