Hi Tim
The thing I usually do is select the file and then in the "Actions" menu
item, select "Check out". This locks the file, creates another copy in
the folder, and you take away a copy to work on. Have 'Record changes'
enabled when you open the document on your system to work on it, change
what you think needs changing, or make suggestions, leaving comments
(Ctrl+Alt+C) giving your reasons. Save the file on your system and
change the filename by adding an underscore, your initials, an
underscore and alter the date. So <Title>_JAS_TL_01Feb13. The date I do
this way because I hate those long strings of numbers which are messy
and differ country to country.
When you're done, go back to ODF, select the checked out copy in the
folder and then in the "Actions" menu, select "Check in".
Go to the "Feedback" folder, select 'Add new' and 'File' and upload your
commented file. Once it's uploaded, go to the Draft LO 4.0 folder and
delete the file from there.
Inform the list you've uploaded a particular file.
This may not be 'by the book' but it's what I've been doing, and works.
Regards
JohnS

Hi, I downloaded the writer guide from the ODF website but I could not see any
obvious way to set status to locked. A quick look at 3.6 shows all this text is
also current. However...
P9 "Moving quickly through a document"contains this sentence (below the
figure):
The Navigation toolbar (Figure 7) shows icons for all the object types shown in
the Navigator, plus some extras (for example, the results of a *Find* command).
"shows" and "shown" in the same sentence? "shows icons for all the object types
/displayed/ in the Navigator" perhaps?
P12 The paragraph below "Selecting a vertical block of text, the last sentence contains a
number of "or" clauses. I think these would look better bulleted
P14 The Caution:
Use *Replace All* with caution; otherwise, you may end up with some hilarious
(and highly embarrassing) mistakes.
Personally I would be emphasising the embarassing while acknowledging, in
brackets, that the mistakes may be hilarious.
Cheers
Tim
