Inline comments, and more

Inline comments

Discussions in the activity feed are great, but sometimes you may want to comment on a specific text in a work item or theme. We have now made it possible to select a portion of the text and comment on that specific part.

To make an inline comment, simply select text and click the “new comment” button in the hover. Alternatively, you can use ctrl/cmd + shift + m. In addition, you can directly make inline comments on other types of content, like todos, images, etc. by clicking the comment icon that appears in the top right corner when hovering the elements.

Inline comments will appear in the activity feed, and here you can also reply and resolve the inline comments directly.
