Ahhh... So &quot;can comment&quot; actually allow more than just comments, it also allows the Suggestion mode?<br />
<br />
Seems like the labeling on that could be a bit better...

Yeah, that's what it does. And I agree, it's a bad user experience for the one who shares the file, they could be more clear about it.

I've got a Google Doc where I'd like to set its sharing permission to a &quot;suggestion&quot; mode. I see sharing options for &quot;can view&quot;, &quot;can comment&quot;, and &quot;can edit&quot; and I know that when editing there's a &quot;suggestion&quot; mode that a user can select.<br />
<br />
However, I don't want them to be able to choose the full edit mode, I want all their changes to clearly show up as suggestions. Any idea how to force only that level of permission?

A word processor is an electronic device or computer software application that performs the task of composition, editing, formatting, and sometimes printing of documents. Most modern word processors use a graphical user interface, and most are powerful systems consisting of one or more programs that can produce any arbitrary combination of images, graphics and text, the latter handled with type-setting capability. Typical features of a modern word processor include font application, spell checking, grammar checking, a built-in thesaurus, automatic text correction, Web integration, and HTML exporting, among others.
