Comments on mouse over?

Post by t.yellow.eyes »

Hello,

I miss the functionality that the content of a comment is shown on mouse over. I always have to open a comment to show its content. Did i miss a setting for this or is the Xchange editor not able to do so in the moment?

Thanks

I'm afraid that the option to show the content of sticky notes via "Enable tooltips" is still not there.

Tracker Software is already aware of this. Let use hope they can tell us when it will be available in the Editor.
(When looking via the Edit-menu > Preferences... > Commenting, there is still no "Enable tooltips" option.)

The same problem exists with text highlighters that contain comment text.

A related issue that needs to be addressed is the fact that from the looks of highlighted text it can't be seen if the highlight contains a comment or not.

I agree. This is a very important feature for efficiently working with annotated documents. It is not handy to look into every highlight to see if there is a comment in it.

Hi guys,

Thanks for the posts - all of the points here are already known to the Dev. Team, but I'll pass along the comments and will see if I can get some info. on when they plan to implement these features.

Cheers,

Gladly just seeing that this has been fixed in the meantime. Highlights containing comment text now have little balloon symbols above them, and show their text content on mouseover.

Amazing response by the Tracker Team, as always.

Keep up the great work,
Best regards
