In Writer, open the Find and Replace dialogue (Ctrl+H) and select 'Other Options'.
Click 'Similarity search'. The button to the right should have an ellipsis icon on it according to the Help files. There is none.

Migrating Whiteboard tags to Keywords: (notBibisectable)

This report no longer applies to recent versions of LO, where the offending button has got a proper label, “Similarities”. For the record, it never bore a graphic, it was just called “...”.
