Use `showAnnotationTools` prevents `showCommentsPanel` to show the comments in the view mode.

Hi,

When I pass the below view config in Adobe PDF Embed API:

const viewerConfig = {
  embedMode: 'FULL_WINDOW',
  defaultViewMode: 'FIT_PAGE', 
  showAnnotationTools: false,
  showCommentsPanel: true,
};

 the comment section does not show up and all the sticky notes and comment are not showing up.

 

It seems that  `showAnnotationTools` is overriding the comment visibility config!

Am I doing something wrong?

As you can see in the attached picture, with the above config,

It does not show the comments section.

It does not show the actual comment/sticky note content text when you hover your mouse on it.

 

We have two mode: 

1- View Mode: In this mode user can not add/remove the annotations but he/she should be able to see the comments and sticky notes.

2- Edit mode: In this mode users can edit the pdf file using the annotation tools
