Hiding Track Changes in FrameMaker 9

Hi all,

This seems like a simple thing, but I haven't been able to find a solution.
I am doing some intensive documentation reviews with a developer. The
content is complex and is going to be revised multiple times. The developer
sensibly asked that I use track changes so that he only reviews new content
and avoids reviewing old content. No problem, I thought, I'll just flip it
on in FrameMaker. And hey it works exactly as intended, so no complaints
there. However, there is one problem: using track changes while doing
detailed edits is driving me crazy. The document is filled with green and
red underlined text. Its almost visually painful (yes i exaggerate
slightly). I have used the "preview final" option but whenever I perform
another edit, the track changes come back. Is there any way to hide to the
track changes while I work in the document and then display them right
before I publish the PDF?

Sincerely,
Joseph Lorenzini
