Anyone know how to "turn on" the "changes" feature of Writer? I can't seem to get it to work.

Someone sent me a .doc file. I saved it as .odt because I was unable to get basic features such as color highlighting and other tools normally on that particular toolbar. Now that I have the .odt the toolbar is restored so that's good.

But now I want to modify the file, and have changes highlighted such as deletions to get a strikethrough and insertions to get a different color. What do I need to do to make it do that? The documentation is no help.

Thank you in advance.

Hi. When you open a document from an email it is opened read only so as not to corrupt the mail sent to you. You can click the pencil looking icon (to the left of the pdf icon) in the tool bar to convert to a new editable copy of the document.

In the tool bar click Edit>Changes and tick record and show.
