Exclamation Tracking change doesn't work (2007) although turning on

Hi everybody,

I had a problem with tracking change in word although I turned it on
with settings (I'm using Word 2007):
+ Insertions: Underline.
+ Deletions: Strikethrough.
+ Display for review: Final showing makeup.
+ Show make up: check all items of this section and "All reviewers" is chosen.

But when I let my mouse to some deleted text/insert text (which were
strike through/under line), there's no any comments displayed to show that
who the author is.

Could anyone help me?

Thanks,

Default Tracking change doesn't work (2007) although turning on

It looks like it's controlled by "tool tips."

Go to Word Options (Office Button in the top left corner, button in
the bottom of the frame)

Go to "Display" (second item in the list at the left)

Turn on "Show document tooltips on hover" (3rd item on the right)

Click OK at the bottom

Hello Peter and everybody,

Now, the comment box is displayed to show who the author is but it displays too fast (about 1 second). I can't read it clearly.

Could you please help me?


Thanks,
Quyen

I've never known a Comment balloon to go away. Maybe you just need to
close and open Word, or Restart the computer?

Also look at all the many options in the Track Changes area of the
Ribbon. Maybe something has gotten checked that shouldn't be.

What, exactly, is disappearing? Balloons or tooltips/screentips?

Hello Stefan Blom,

Comment box I mentioned is the boxed text message appears when a mouse cursor is put over a text message (which is inserted/deleted). I don't know what it is called (tooltip or screentip).

Thanks,
Quyen.

Hello Stefan Blom,

Maybe it's a tooltip. When I let my mouse cursor to inserted/deleted text (in word 2007), there's a tooltip appears to show who the author of these actions (insert/delete) is but it appears too fast (about 1s) so I can't read it clearly. Please help me.


Thanks alot,
RubyQuyen.

Hello Stefan Blom,

Maybe it's a tooltip. When I let my mouse cursor to inserted/deleted text (in word 2007), there's a tooltip appears to show who the author of these actions (insert/delete) is but time for appearing is too fast (appear within 1s then disappear right away) so I can't read it clearly. Please help me.


Thanks alot,
RubyQuyen.
