Filtering Comments

The drop-down list gives a range of possibilities. The commands are applied not only to the comment listing, but the comment display on the document pages.

Hide/Show all comments: Empty or restore the full comment list in the Comments panel . Hiding comments in the document closes all open comment frames leaving only the note icons visible. Showing the comments again does not restore these comment frames; they should be opened one-by-one as desired by double-clicking the comment icon.

Show by Type: Choose between All Types, Notes, Drawing Markup Tools, Text Editing Markup Tools, Stamps, Attachments (applies only to those added as comments). Use All Types to restore the full list.

Show by Reviewer: Choose from all the authors of comments in the document. Use this to view only comments from a defined person.

Show by status: Choose a review status (none, accepted, rejected, cancelled, completed) or a migration status (none, confirmed, unconfirmed).

Show by checkmark: Choose from All, checked, unchecked.

Sorting  Comments

Sorting relates only to the comment list. The default value is Page. Other choices are Type, Author, Date, Color and Checkmark status. Sorting by Author functions only if author names are available. Sorting by checkmarks allows you to see a customized listing.
