One of the most useful tools when moving forward to publishing a working copy is the changes list. It gives editors and reviewers an overview of the content that has been altered, hints at pages that need to be fixed for one or the other reason, and more. Wouldn’t it be great to not have to open a dialog to access those changes?
So here it is, the changes sidebar! It offers almost all the pieces of information the dialog does, and additionally features a search field which comes in handy if the list of changes has become long. The best, however, is that the changes are always in reach, and walking through them page by page instantly displays the selected one, which is faster and way more convenient than using the dialog.
Have you noticed the counter on the sidebar button? Don’t let that number of changes get too large! ;)
Last but not least, the new changes sidebar also lets you publish a working copy, request that it be published should a workflow demand it, and, of course, open the dialog for moving changes to a different working copy.
