Make it possible to reattach unattached comments

This is critical! Attached means Attached - moving or ungroupping should not affect it. Please improve this, it really is an urgent feature

Somehow, all the comments I annotated earlier today became unattached. Not only did I struggle to figure out why they weren’t appearing as pins on the canvas/frame, but there’s no way to reattach. This is a bummer.

I am coming from Zeplin, where comment functionality is generally more robust (though still not ideal). I would love it if Figma put some more focus on this feature - it really is barely enough to justify keeping the conversation inside design files.

1. Describe the problem your experiencing and how your idea helps solve this
   Comments are not tied to frames hence while moving pages, these stayed floating on the canvas

2. Add as much context as possible (screenshots, Figma files, mockups, etc.)
   

   

3. Ask questions to bring the community into the conversation
   (e.g. Does anyone else experience this? Is anyone using a plugin or workaround to help solve this?, etc.

Sometimes it’s not possible to copy out all of the commentary in a nice way, as well. Especially when there’s a thread involving multiple people.

Decided to make page-level component templates. Commenting doesn’t play nice with either componentizing or detatching and keeping the comments in place. So I have to choose whether to be atomic or maintain comments…

Please, this is such a huge pain.

Is this available now ?-??
