I want to disable comments in sidebar

Setting showAnnotationTools: false solves it but it disables PDF annotations altogether, I need a way to disable the comments sidebar only.
is there a way to do this?

Looking at the docs in regards to customization (https://developer.adobe.com/document-services/docs/overview/pdf-embed-api/howtos_ui/), I don't believe so, but you should check the doc there to be sure.

@Raymond Camden I checked and tried this code but it doesn't work
const customFlags = {
showToolbar: true,
showCommentsPanel: false,
showToolsOnTextSelection: false,
downloadWithAnnotations: false,
printWithAnnotations: false
}

adobeDCView.previewFile({

content:{location: {url: "https://www.nammakalvi.in/uploads/3/0/7/5/30750087/namma_kalvi_10th_science_unit_20_to_23_don_guide_em_218807.pdf"}},

metaData:{fileName: "Bodea Brochure.pdf"}

}, {

}).then(adobeViewer => {

adobeViewer.getAnnotationManager().then(annotationManager => {

annotationManager.setConfig({ showCommentsPanel: false}) .then(() => console.log("Success"))

.catch(error => console.log(error));

});

})

In the second argument to previewFile, which you have empty, add:

enableAnnotationAPIs: true
