Hi @bowen_utahbim. Thanks a lot for the thorough feedback and video! Improving the commenting feature is on our roadmap so this is all golden.
To answer your questions:
- No way to edit a comment (yet?).
- No way to delete individual comments in a discussion thread (yet?).
- Good that you found out why the unresolved comment didn’t show up.
I’ve made a note that these discussion settings – and the interplay between them – could be better explained. - Can you elaborate on the workflows you think we’d unlock if we enabled programmatically sending viewpoints as comments using the API?
- It’s not possible for admins to control how the discussion settings apply to everyone loading the model in the viewer. Do you have a specific settings combination in mind that you’d like to always apply?
- Moving comments: To be honest I just learned from your video that comments can be moved
I never noticed this – so thanks for teaching me that. Sadly, another no: At the moment comments always appear in the place they were created. We’ve received similar feedback in the past that comments can sometimes be in the way, so this is something I’d like to explore. Either we 1) make it easier to move them, 2) change it so that comments always appear next to the canvas, 3) make sure comments always appear next to the highlighted object instead of on top, 4) a combination of these or something I haven’t thought of yet. We’ll keep this problem in mind as we improve the feature!
Is there anything else you’re missing from the commenting feature that would make it easier for you to give good feedback?
Thanks again and keep it coming!
