Hello Team!

I could use some guidance.  I am double checking some things in updating
the Writer Chapter 3 Guide.  I can not get the *Find & Replace > Attributes*
option to work at all.  Should we report this as a bug?  Do we delete this
section from the manual?  *Format* works fine.  It is just the *Attributes*
search that doesn't work.

Please see the steps in my previous email below.  Since the instructions
say the search looks for changes from the default, I changed some of the
font colors but still no options show up in the *Find*: box.

Thank you!

Toni
