How to change comment colors when same reviewer

[Willyq711]

Greetings,

I am a commercial broker and usually represent both sides (Buyer/Seller or Tenant/Landlord) as transaction broker. How would I be able to progress to another color when commenting a document when I am the only one actually commenting the document? For example, LL goes over his requested modifications and comments, I comment accordingly (in RED of course is first color). Then Tenant does the same and I need to go back into the document and now comment with his modifications and remarks, but the system thinks it still the same "round" of commentating since it's only me. I don't want to ACCEPT ALL because then we can't track each sides comments. How can I let the system know that this is another progressed round of comments and necessitate another color? 

Thanks in advance.

You need to change the color for your comments and make them the new default. Let's say you add five sticky notes with the color set to red, then you switch roles. Add another note and right-click on the note, and select to edit it's properties. Change the color _AND_ select to "Make Properties Default". From now on, when you place a note, it will use the new color. When you are ready to switch back to your first role, you do the same thing again, but change the color back to red.

And if you really want to go crazy, you can change your comment author name too:

Plus, if you do that, you'll be able to filter the comments later on by Reviewer, and only see yours/the other person's comments!

Sorry for all the typos and grammar errors just that I'm using voice to text and it's obviously far from perfect

Thank you Karl. Changing the author in the color will definitely do it and I done it in the past.. However, what I was hoping for is just a method or "switch" we're by the system will just recognize from that point forward that I am commentating another reviewer. In the same passion as when I send my document to another reviewer, the system automatically recognizes that and changes the colors and anything else that's a Siri to recognize dos comment as a response to the first red line.

Not with what comes with Acrobat. You would need some sort of custom software to do that. And even with custom software, it may not work exactly the way you describe it. One way to make changing back and forth easier would be to display the Properties toolbar (Ctrl-E or Cmd-E on a Mac).

It can be achieved using a custom-made script.
For example, I've developed a (paid-for) tool that allows you to switch between highlight colors with a single click (https://www.try67.com/tool/acrobat-reader-quickly-switch-between-highlighter-colors). Adjusting it to switch between names of authors will not be too difficult.
