How to leverage the rev attribute to put change bars in the output

[shannonxtreme]

I'm trying to use the rev = 2.0 attribute on elements to show a change bar in the left margin. The current css I am using feels a little hacky:

Code: Select all

*[rev*="2.0"] {

	display: block;

	border-right: 2px solid #31728d;

	margin-right: -0.3in;

	padding-right: 0.3in;

}

This works for one type of publication (but it feel weird to use). However, in another type of publication, we have a border-top for elements. The above CSS makes the border extend into the margin too.

Is there a way to make a nice clean change bar in the left margin? I feel like I am doing something wrong here.

Hello,

Can you post a screenshot with what you want to obtain? Maybe we can help.

Many regards,
