I have a comp, a flow, a document, that I've shared and collected and discussed the feedback with the client. 

 

Now long after the fact, one of the client is going in and making new comments, just because they can. 

 

Is it possible for me to close the comments without losing those old comments? Just lock it from future comments? I don't immediately see a way... how is everyone handling this?

Hi @Ch Ch Ch Chad, as of now, I can't think of a way of doing it, and when I searched the feature requests I can only see one about blocking only some users from commenting: https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007-adobe-xd-feature-requests/suggestions/34341544-a-way-to-block-some-users-from-from-commenting You might want to create a new feature request about this, since now I see that can be a requirement for some situations. Thinking what I'd do in a similar situation, as I see it if you re-check the "Allow Comments" option after unchecking it, you can see the past comments so the best way would be temporarily disabling the comments and maybe including some screenshots of old comments etc but it's good to know old comments are still there and you can see whenever you re-enable them. Would like to see an update about how you resolved this, happy creating!
