Comment Tool: Persistent Expanded Bubble View


David_Fite

I love the comment tool, it would be so awesome if you could have a viewing mode where all the comments stay expanded, so you can review a file and see the comments on your work without having to roll over an icon or look at a list.

Hey @David_Fite, thanks for the feedback!

We’ll pass this onto our collaboration team for future consideration.

Comments are almost always tied to specific layers on the artboard. However, the list of comments doesn’t display this relationship, as it is separate from the artboard itself. An expanded bubble view of native comments would allow the content of each comment to be seen at a glance without having to open each one individually.

I often need to revisit comments, as I tend to forget their content once I close them. Persistent expanded bubble view would be a solution.

We address this issue by using the Annotate Design plugin. One disadvantage is that annotations aren’t linked to specific layers as native comments would be, so they need to be repositioned each time the layers are moved. The advantage, however, is that all comments are immediately visible and don’t need to be manually opened.
