When the source of the comments is recalled, such as a viewpoint, all comments attached to it appear in
the Comments control bar, showing the time and date, author, ID and status of each comment. The icon
on the far left represents the source type:
- selection set.
- search set.
or - viewpoint.
or - viewpoint animation.
- tag.
- TimeLiner.
With many comments attached to many sources in a model, you may want to find a particular comment
without having to manually search each possible source. See “ Finding Comments ” for details on how to
achieve this.
Note:
The first line of a comment is what is displayed in the top half of the Comments control bar and
can be treated like its "subject". To get multiple lines in a comment, hold down Control and press
Enter. This will give you a carriage return in the text box, rather than simulating a press of the OK
button.
Any new comments will automatically be given a unique ID, along with the date and author of the
comment and a status can be set. All of these are searchable criteria.
Once a comment is added, it can be edited or deleted.
Adding Comments
You can add as many comments as you wish to a source, either from the Comments control bar, or from
the source itself.
Adding a comment from the Comments control bar:
1. Go to the source of the comment, be it a viewpoint, selection set or Clash Detective result.
2. Open the Comments control bar by clicking on the Workspace toolbar.
3. Right-click the Comments control bar, and click Add Comment on the shortcut menu.
An empty Add Comment resizable dialog is displayed.
