Comments

The comment system lets you leave feedback directly inside the editor. Click anywhere on the canvas to start a conversation, anchor comments to specific moments on the timeline, and use threads, reactions, mentions, and attachments to keep review discussions organized.

Comments appear in three places: the Comments sidebar panel, as overlay pins on the canvas, and as markers on the timeline.

Opening the Comments panel

Click the Comments icon in the left sidebar to open the panel. The panel lists all comment threads in the project with previews of the content, author, timestamp, reply count, and read status.

Starting a new thread

From the canvas

1. Click the Comment button in the editor header to enter comment mode.
2. Click anywhere on the canvas to leave a pin comment, or click and drag to draw a region around a specific area.
3. A comment popover appears. Type your comment and click Post.

The comment is anchored to the position on the canvas and the current playhead time, so other collaborators can see exactly what frame and location you are referring to.

Replying to a thread

Click any thread in the Comments panel or click a comment pin on the canvas to expand it. Type your reply in the text field at the bottom and click Post. Replies are nested under the original comment, forming a conversation thread. Each thread supports up to 200 replies.

Reactions

Add an emoji reaction to any comment or reply. Click the smiley face icon on a comment to open the emoji picker, then select an emoji. The reaction appears as a chip below the comment showing the emoji and the number of people who reacted with it.

Click an existing reaction chip to add your own reaction with the same emoji, or click it again to remove yours.

@Mentions

Type @ in the comment editor to mention a collaborator. A dropdown appears listing everyone who has access to the project. Select a name to insert the mention. Mentioned collaborators are highlighted in the comment text so they stand out.

Attachments

You can attach images to any comment or reply for visual reference.

• Click the image button in the comment editor to open the file picker.
• Select up to 5 images per comment, each up to 10 MB.
• Attached images appear as thumbnails below the comment text.
• Click a thumbnail to open a full-size preview with zoom controls.
• Remove an attachment by clicking the remove button on the thumbnail before posting.

Resolving and reopening threads

When feedback has been addressed, click the resolve button (circle with checkmark) on a thread to mark it as resolved. Resolved threads are hidden from the panel by default so you can focus on open items.

To see resolved threads, open the panel menu and enable Show resolved comments. Click the resolve button again on a resolved thread to reopen it.

Read and unread

Unread threads show a blue dot indicator in the Comments panel. A thread is marked as read automatically when you open it.

• Mark as unread: use the thread menu to flag a thread for follow-up.
• Mark all as read: use the panel menu to clear all unread indicators at once.

The unread count also appears as a badge on the Comments icon in the sidebar.

Filtering and sorting

The Comments panel includes controls to help you find specific threads:

Sort options

• By date: most recent activity first (default).
• By unread: unread threads first, then by date.

Filter options

• Show resolved comments: include resolved threads in the list.
• Only your threads: show only threads you started.
• Search: type to search across comment text, author names, and replies.

Comment visibility

You can control where comments appear in the editor:

Timeline markers

Toggle Show comments in timeline in the panel menu. When enabled, comment markers appear on the timeline ruler at the timestamp each thread is anchored to. Comments that are close together are clustered into a single marker with a count badge. Click a marker to jump to that comment.

Canvas overlay

Control how comments appear on the canvas preview:

• All: show all comment pins on the canvas.
• Near playhead: only show comments anchored near the current playhead position (default).
• Hidden: hide all comment pins from the canvas.

Editing and deleting comments

• Edit: you can edit your own comments after posting. Open the comment menu and select Edit.
• Delete: you can delete your own comments. Open the comment menu and select Delete. A 5-second undo option appears after deletion. Deleting the first comment in a thread removes the entire thread and all its replies.
