Filter Deleted Text

Some applications have revision tracking features—such as Microsoft Word's Track Changes—that identify changes to a document. When these features are used, text that was deleted from a document might still be stored in the file. KeyView does not filter deleted text by default, but the Filter API provides options to enable this.

The filtered text does not include the reviewer name or revision date.

To filter or exclude deleted text

  • In the Python API, call the method revision_marks on your session configuration. To include deleted text, pass in the value True. To exclude deleted text, pass in the value False. For example:

    session.config.revision_marks(True)
