Track changes now comments deletions

[HumboldtSteve]

In previous versions, when Track Changes was on, deleted text was set to strikeout. Now the text is moved into a comment bubble which makes it harder to track what's been changed and you can no longer separate edits from comments. I much prefer the old method.

This is a document setting. It seems the person who created the document you worked on preferred seeing deletions in the comments pane.

Switch via File, Properties, Reviewing, Deletions: Strikethrough.

If you are opening a document that has not been subjected to tracking changes, and you want to track changes, you have to first go to File, Properties, Reviewing, and click on the Track Changes box. It is set to OFF by default.

It appears I have to do this for every Word document I open.
Although strikethrough is the default for new documents, when I open existing documents (created in Word), the default for deletect text is the comments pane. Is there a way to set the default for all documents to strikethrough?

(I am using TextMaker Trial NX)

Default settings can only be applied to new documents. For existing documents, TextMaker uses the settings already stored in that document.

When I create a document in MS Word, the deletions are shown as strike-through. When I then open the document for the first time in TextMaker, the deletions show up in the comments pane. In case MS Word does not store the track changes viewing settings in the .docx file in the same way that TextMaker does, I would prefer TextMaker applies the default setting of displaying the strike-through.

The example is attached. Created in MS Word. MS Word shows deletions as strike-through. When I open in Textmaker NX, the deletions appear in the comments pane.
