Question

Reviews können unbrauchbar eingegeben werden

Einer meiner Kunden führt jetzt zum dritten Mal einen Review durch. Inzwischen habe ich herausgefunden, wie er es schafft, dass ich nicht sehen kann *wo* die Änderung vorgenommen werden soll.

Schritte zum Nachstellen:

  • Dokument in InDesign (neueste Version 21.4.1 x64) erstellen; Text und Zahlen einfügen; Review freigeben; Speichern
  • Im Review-Link einen Text markieren, aber *kein* Werkzeug wählen - *nur* einen Kommentar dazu abgeben — markieren, kommentieren, KEIN Werkzeug wählen
  • Der Kommentar wird auf der Website und in InDesign korrekt angezeigt, kann aber nicht hervorgehoben werden (alle anderen Textwerkzeuge liefern Hervorhebungen)
    Sind es, so wie in meinem Fall, viele Zahlen, die durch andere Zahlen ersetzt werden sollen, kann ich nicht raten, wo das vielleicht gewesen sein könnte…
  • So dumm das seitens des Kunden sein mag, kann es nicht sein, dass die Software diese Option bietet - dann aber nicht unterstützt

Insgesamt bin ich sehr froh um die Review-Option und halte das Tool für einen Segen - aber das finde ich ist eine Kinderkrankheit, die es nach fünf Jahren nicht mehr geben sollte. 😶

    Hi ​@smithdesign77, 

     

    Thank you for taking the time to share the detailed reproduction steps. I understand how important this functionality is, and I can see how comments without a clear reference to the selected text can make the review workflow difficult, especially in documents with repeated content.

    At the moment, this functionality is not available. Would you mind creating a UserVoice for this feature request here: https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601021-adobe-indesign-feature-requests? Doing so will help our Product Team prioritize the request, and you'll be notified of any updates.

    Once you've created the UserVoice, please share the link in this thread so that other community members can upvote it as well.

     

    Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need further assistance, we'd be happy to help.

    So, you say that if I just filed that problem with a third party service (instead here), Adobe developers would take the matter more serious and perhaps fix it – while in February 2023 (so over three years ago) a person named Cally posted at the mentioned service this very problem?

    For example: They can leave a regular comment just fine, however, I have no idea where in the text the change should be because they don't highlight the text first then click the tool needed. It's a simple step for people who are familiar with these reviews but some people that have never used it before, it is a nightmare for us designers to go back and forth on where the fix is.

    Please excuse me for being skeptical now and currently not wanting to invest my time to post nothing … but the quite same text.

    This even dates from 2021 and had quite that problem already:
    https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/42722741-share-for-review-highlight-and-strike-through

     

    This is from August 2022:
    https://indesign.uservoice.com/forums/601180-adobe-indesign-bugs/suggestions/45632458-share-for-review-comments-are-unmapped

     

    So, after seeing all of this, I compute this is not a missing-knowledge issue.

    However, I do really thank you for answering on my post! Now I can safely think that Adobe is well aware of the problem and I will solve that matter by myself through a YouTube Tutorial I send it to the stakeholders first, before sending the actual review link.

    Thank you!
