The changes toolbar has a "Show track changes" menubutton, with a 3-element radiogroup. Unfortunately - none of them is set - even when you just start LO Writer. And clicking any of them does not change this, the menubutton still has no items selected.

Reproduced with current stable and master build. The lack of a visual indicator for the selected radio buttons seems to be a cosmetic issue (rather than an issue with the track changes mechanism). Possibly an enhancement request. Adding libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org to evaluate.

Note: to reproduce, first add the track changes toolbar via View > Toolbar > Track Changes

No, it's just a bug. The UI is there, it's just broken.
Comment 3 Heiko Tietze 2023-09-08 07:16:28 UTC
The command is .uno:ShowTrackedChanges with .uno:SetTracked* options introduced by László for bug 116757.

The menu button toggles Show TC but does not activates the radiobutton depending on what kind of feedback was chosen previously. Which is stored correctly, meaning if TC is set to "Deletion in Margins", for example, it will be reactivated with the Show TC toggle. But the radio button is not checked accordingly.
