How can I leave comments on a design I'm working on in a Team or Group?

Business users can access any designs that have been shared in their Team from the Team Designs page.

 

ℹ️ On Enterprise accounts, a Member must be part of the Group where the design was shared in order to access the design.

 

Access your Team Designs page or your Group. Click "Edit" to open the design you want to comment on.

Adding a comment

Click on the Comment (speech bubble) icon in the top right corner of the Editor to enter Comment Mode.

A partial view of the 'Job Hiring Mind Map' template in the Venngage Editor shows a thin yellow border on the outside of the design canvas. The Comment Mode icon in the top toolbar appears at the top right of the canvas. The icon is in the shape of a white speech bubble with a black outline, and a yellow background the same color of the border around the canvas.

 

Click anywhere on the design canvas to add a comment pin. Type your comment directly into the comment box that appears. 

A close-up of a comment box on a design canvas shows a comment window overlaying the design, with the text 'Add a comment' visible in the text box. The icon in the right side of the text box is a simple paper plane design, and the icon is grey, indicating that the comment box is not ready to post.

 

When you've typed your comment, click the green paper plane icon or just hit the Return key on your keyboard.

Viewing a comment

Click on the comment pin. The comment pin appears as a grey circle with the commenter's initials inside in white lettering, encircled by a border with a pointed corner.

The comment box opens next to the comment pin and displays the date and time the comment was made over the comment text.

Replying to comments

Reply to any comment by typing in the "Reply" field below the comment:

A close-up of part of a design canvas shows a comment widget from a user who has added a comment to the canvas. The comment box appears next to a pin with the user's initials encircled on a grey background. The user's comment appears in the comment box under their name, with a date and time stamp. Two icons appear in the top right of the comment box: a check mark to mark the comment resolved and an 'x' to close it. Underneath the comment is a text box with the prompt 'Reply', which allows a user to enter text in response to the original comment, forming a thread.

 

Reply to posted comments, or create new comments in any area of the design canvas when Comment Mode is enabled.

To comment on your own design and leave yourself a note, simply follow the steps above in your own design.
