How to enable revision marks (underlines in color) in LibreOffice

You need to activate the Changes mode:

1. open the document which you want to edit;
2. go to Edit ▸ Track Changes ▸ Record; and
3. make sure Edit ▸ Track Changes ▸ Show is checked.

Start to make your changes. You will notice that all new text is displayed with a colored underline, while any text that you delete remains displayed but struck through in color. These options can be modified using the menu Tools ▸ Options ▸ LibreOffice Writer ▸ Changes.
