Add Comments in Edit View

When providing feedback comments in Paligo, the comments will appear in the Comments sidebar. As a contributor, you can also add replies to comments in the Comments Sidebar. Adding comments in Edit View can be done in two ways:

  • If not activating Edit View, it works the same as in Review View. You add a comment by selecting a text or phrase and then entering your feedback.

  • When Edit View is activated, use the Comment toolbar option to add a comment to the content you are editing.
