Word simple markup color coded

Anonymous

I am using Word 2016 and tracking changes in a document, editing with several other people.

There are too many edits to have all markup shown, but edits are neatly color coded by their author.

Under simple markup, sideline is a sea of red - all edits are marked, but without a way to distinguish who corrected which part of the document.

I am using "show markup -> specific people"... but it gets very tedious to keep doing it.

Is there a way to make simple markup color coded instead?

Thanks!

    Hi,

    AFAIK, there is not. You can use the Feedback mechanism or UserVoice to suggest this. (Developers do not read this forum but they do read those suggestions.)\
