MicrosoftA few more observations from my "beta testing": I had to edit a chapter of a memoir after I posted yesterday, and ended up tired and headachy--literally, not metaphorically--because, to quote from RXOptical.com, "100% contrast (white on a black background) can be harder to read and cause more eye strain. It can be harder to read long chunks of text with a light-on-dark theme." This is just common sense, and why, outside of heavy metal bands, 99% of webpages are on white backgrounds. I also missed a few of the comments made by the author bc they blended into my comments (something that never happened with the classic version)--I think this is bc the eye is fooled by the black, rather than responding to the initials in the circles. If there were multiple reviewers, it would be a nightmare. I also kept forgetting to take the extra step to click the button to post, and would start on another comment, only to get kicked back up in the document to the words I last commented on--rather than going to the last comment I forgot to "post." Annoying as hell. It took a lot of extra time to have to click to edit my comments. And, as Don_Pool said so well, I NEED those lines to see where I've commented.
Susan CowardI asked my computer guy about your reversion link, and he said he didn't think it would work. I tried rolling back to a previous restore point, but my laptop didn't populate as far back as I needed it to go, so no joy. Two questions: 1. Has anyone found another workaround (besides Susan's and Don's? 2. Does anyone from MS even read this, or are we just p*&ing into the wind here?? Desperate to find a way to resolve this 😞
