Keep Comments pinned to design elements (including nested)

In a FigJam I noticed the comment state highlights objects as you hover over them, and I wondered if that meant your comment would get stuck to that object.

I imagine this could serve lots of potential purposes, but the first practical one is that when objects get moved around, the comment pointers could stay pointing at the original thing.

Other extended ideas:

• When the object is deleted, the thread is resolved by default.
• When the object changes, that could be reflected somehow in the thread, so the discussion evolves.
• Discussion can now be tied to all kinds of text, styling, etc…go wild on your analytics/insights…but what is useful?!

Mostly for starters I want comment locations to stay relevant in the flow of working.

Hi James,

I think that the object/comment used to be like your describe it: when moving the object the comment would stay on the same canvas-position.

But I just checked right now: windows Figma app 112.2: now when I move the object, the comments follow, both Design/FigJam. Was this just fixed maybe?
😕

Up voting this one. Still a big issue for me!

Same here. Would love to have an option to pin comments to elements - suggestion, if deleting the element it would be nice to either:

a. Keep the comment per default but make it floating with a note saying something like “pinned element deleted”
b. Get a dialogue with the option to either keep the comment (floating) or delete it

Did this get resolved? I am still experiencing this and is so time consuming.

This isn’t working for me. Can you explain how this is done?

Has there been any resolution on this? Incredibly annoying.

While this might work at a top level frame, I like to have have my frames in auto layout to keep everything tidy.

This breaks the functionality of “pinning” to a frame so I end up ungrouping to have the pinning functionality at a high level.

However the issue bubbles up in frames that have auto layout and things shifting around alot.

Can we pin to a frame or group regardless if it’s a parent or not? Pretty pls?

a couple of days ago, my comments were pinned to the frames, I thought the issue was solved which was great. But today the comments are no longer pinned. I wish I knew what I did before.

sometimes it works misteriously, sometimes it doesn’t
