            Bug ID: 157338
           Summary: Need side-by-side comparison in Writer
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.4.7.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Description:
The line-by-line format of Track Changes -> Compare Document is too difficult
to understand. Even the instructions to begin with the newest document and then
open the oldest document is flawed, since file dates are often unreliable and
edits may have been made to both files. Please implement side-by-side
comparison of Writer documents with highlighting of differences, with "keep
this version" buttons next to each difference. While we're at it, include
options for "ignore formatting" so we can choose to compare  only the words.
Thank you very much.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Edit -> Track Changes -> Compare Documents.

Actual Results:
A small window with a series of red X and green + often wit the same author

Expected Results:
A small window with a series of red X and green + often wit the same author


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
