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

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,

Chemistry does not support PDF change bars - yet.

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

Many regards,
Dan

Hi Dan,

We can't upload a screenshot as uploads are restricted on our company network. Is it possible to email this to you?

Hello,

Starting with Oxygen version 22, content can be flagged using change bars.

For more information and how to use the change bars, please refer the documentation.
