Commenting on Assets

[kristeno]

Comments allow you to leave notes or messages and communicate with workspace collaborators. For example, you can comment on an asset, and collaborators can respond – thereby beginning a conversation thread.

Create a comment

1. Select the asset on which you want to comment.
    
2. Select (Comments) on the object toolbar. A Chat & Comments pane appears.
    
3. Enter your remarks in the Comments tab and select Send.
    
   
   
   
    
   Note: You can also find the Comments option within (More) on the object toolbar.

Comment indicators

After comments have been made on an object, a comment indicator will appear. There are three types of indicators you can see:

• Unread comments
• Read comments
• Unread comments where you are mentioned
   
  
  

Note: The indicators will always remain on the objects so long as there is at least one comment posted. If you prefer to turn the indicators off, you can do so via the workspace settings menu.

Comment on a specific area of an image

To add a comment to a specific part of your image upload:

1. Select an image within your workspace.
    
2. Select (Comment) on the image toolbar.
    
3. Hover your cursor over the image. Your cursor will change from (Select) to (Comment).
    
4. Select the area on which you want to comment.
    
5. Enter your remarks in the Comments tab.
    
   Your comment appears in line with other comments, and a thumbnail of your profile picture appears on the image, indicating that you have left a comment.
    
   
    
   Note: This feature is also possible on individual frames within uploaded video content. Learn more: Using Video Frame Level Commenting

Mention someone in a comment

You can @mention members in a comment, which sends them an email notification. You can also @mention groups of members if your Team Admin has enabled groups.

Edit a comment

5. Make any changes to your comment.
    
6. Select Save.
    
   

Resolve a comment

Similar to other comment editors, you can mark comments as ‘resolved’ to help track the progress of a revision or editing cycle.

To resolve a comment:

1. Select (Chat & Comments) in the upper right of your screen.
    
2. Select the Comments tab.
    
3. Select (More) on a comment.
    
4. Select Resolve. The member avatar will update to a green checkmark, signifying that the comment has been resolved.
    
   

Delete a comment

See the timestamp of a comment

You can also see when a comment was created and edited:

1. Select the comment.
    
2. Select (More).
    
3. Select Info.
    
   
   
   
    
   The timestamps for the creation and each edit appear below the comment.
    
   
    

Chat & Comments are powerful communication tools to ensure your team is always on the same page.
