I'm new to DOORS, but am getting along very well so far. I have noticed one thing that I want to ask about, though. I've been composing my documents directly in DOORS modules. Seemed easier to me than writing in Word and importing. Since it's taking me several days or weeks to complete a module, I would like to somehow highlight objects that I want to be sure to come back and finish. If I was composing in Word, I'd change a bit of the text to red so that it pops out visually. DOORS doesn't seem to have text color options. I'm curious why that might be. (Other than you have to draw the line somewhere before you end up implementing object oriented Word!)
How do you guys highlight things you want to come back to? Bolding doesn't seem quite sufficient to me.

The simplest way is to use attributes for this. Set up an enumeration attribute for your status - Not started, in work, completed - then code those enumerated values with colors. Or don't use colors and just filter your view to only show the reqs that meet the status values - then your views will only show those that meet the filter.
If you want to use colors, then right click on the column heading that has the text you want to color, choose properties and use the enumerated attribute to set the color for the text in that column. Then can see all reqs in one view but use the colors to see their status.

You'll need to use an attribute. In the DOORS help file, do a search on color coding data.
