Text selection
I have been using Word for years. Recently I started using a new computer and find that I have lost capabilities that I relied upon. Worse, I can't find a way to ask questions about this lost capability because I can't discover what it is called. Here. When I used to select text a box appeared and it gave me options like "New Comment" or "Strike Through." First up what is that box called. It doesn't appear to be the Quick Access Tool Bar. But second, on the new computer the choices that appear in the box are limited to font type, size, color etc. I want to add those mark changes options to that little box. Thanks in advance.
