I know the thread is old but it helps:
Tools > Preferences > Fees > Enable Replace-by-Fee. And tick "Replaceable" when you're sending.
The transactions you sent this way will be marked as replaceable, you can increase the fee by right-clicking and choose "Increase fee". You can mark a transaction as final when increasing the fee, doing this will make you unable to increase the fee again (after you broadcasted the "final" transaction).
