Redlining for Laws & Regulations

Back to VitalLaw® Help Home

In the VitalLaw® Laws & Regulations dashboard you can quickly compare two versions of a law or regulation using the Redlining feature.  Redlining allows you to see even the smallest changes between two documents.  Turn on Redlining using the available toggle to compare two adjacent versions of the law or regulation. 

Redlining is only available on future effective versions of Laws and Regulations and will compare the selected future version with the immediately adjacent prior version.

Note:  Links in the text are not available when redlining is turned ON.  To use these links, turn redlining OFF.  


To turn on Laws & Regulations Redlining:

  1. Open the future effective version of the Law or Regulation you would like to compare.
  2. Change the toggle in the upper right-hand corner of the document panel from OFF to ON (left to right) by clicking on the toggle. 
  3. Scroll through the document to see the differences between the selected version and the immediately prior version on the timeline.







Note: Additions in the newer text are highlighted in green (Additions), and deletions in the newer text are highlighted in red and crossed through (Deletions).


To turn off Laws & Regulations Redlining:

Change the toggle in the upper right-hand corner of the document panel from ON to OFF (right to left) by clicking on the toggle.

Note: Navigating away from the redlined document will reset the Redlining Toggle to the OFF position.
