Abstract

A tweak and view mode may be used by a user to see an effect of a proposed change to a document before the change is committed to the document. The application may automatically navigate to different portions of the document and/or display different sections of the document. Instead of the user having to search for the portion of the document affected by the change, the changed portions are determined for the user. The portions may be automatically displayed to the user and/or the user may determine when to move to each different portion that changed as a result of the proposed change. The proposed change may be accepted/rejected by the user. For example, a User Interface (UI) element may be selected by the user to either accept the change or reject the change.
