            Bug ID: 136802
           Summary: Compare document – review changes sequencially
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.0.3 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: konstantin.kivi at gmail.com

After document comparison is initiated, a dialog with the list of changes shows
up, obscuring a large part of the screen. This is not always convenient. I
would rather close this window and have an option to go from one change to
another in order. This would be ideally done with a prev/next pair of buttons. 

It may seem that these buttons already exist. If you click on a change in that
special dialog window, two arrows appear in the right corner of the toolbar.
But they work in a strange way – they move you between changes that you already
have visited using changes dialog only. If for example, you click only on the
first change, then next/right arrow will be grayed. If you close the dialog
immediately, these buttons do not appear at all.

The required functionality is available through the menu Edit-Track
Changes-next/previous, but this is very inconvenient. There should be either
prev/next buttons somewhere on the toolbar, or the should be a keyboard
shortcut

Current prev/next arrow buttons are misleading. They move through changes that
were previously visited via dialog only.
