Comments

Comments are a great way to start discussions in any place on the board. Share your ideas and thoughts by leaving comments and mentioning collaborators.

Add comments

💡 To tag yourself in a comment, type @ followed by your name. Use this feature to assign yourself tasks and set reminders in your feed notifications.

To create a comment choose Comment on the toolbar or press C hotkey. Click the spot where you would like to post it, type in your comment, @mention someone if needed, and press Enter. Comments can be attached to any widget on the board - post a comment right on the object and it will belong to this object (note: this doesn't apply to frames). 

Adding a comment

You can attach an existing comment to an object.

Follow thread

Never miss a reply to your comments. Once you leave a comment, reply in a thread, or are @mentioned in any comment, you will get a notification of new comments in such threads. 

The option to follow a thread

Stay up to date on threads you are interested in by manually following a thread or all threads on a board. Find the option to Follow all threads in the board settings.

The option to follow all threads on the board

Once your part in discussion in a thread or on a board is completed, you can unfollow any single thread in a comment dialogue box or all existing threads and all future ones at once in the board menu - just untick the option Follow all threads.

💡 Feel free to adjust your notification preferences in the settings.

Resolve thread

You can mark any comment thread as Resolved to hide it and focus your attention where it’s most needed:
