Note and Comment visibility

[FrederikSt]

Adding a Note adds a tiny marker and I need to open the note window to see the contents. I'd like to work with notes like in Word, where you can highlight a sentence and leave a note for it. This way you can scroll through a document, easily spot where the note is and what it is refering to, as opposed to going through all notes step by step and then guessing if I meant the text, the image or the entire paragraph.

Thank you, that looks promising. I was really hoping for a vanilla solution, this looks like a 3. party plugin, I'm not a big fan of those, but I'll give it a try.

Hi Frederik,

Thanks for your feedback. George has given great response. In addition to that, you may check out existing workflow of how to add editorial notes work in this help article.

You may also share a feature request to improve this on Adobe InDesign UserVoice. This UserVoice forum is monitored by product team and they might look into it in upcoming releases.

Hope it helps.

Regards,

Ashutosh
