How can I add comments or notes to a diagram or object?

Creately is made for collaboration and we've made commenting on diagrams very simple. With Creately, you can leave fellow collaborators comments on the diagram as well as on specific objects in your diagram.

• Click the Comments Button on the right side of the Creately application to reveal the Comments panel.

  

• To add a comment on the diagram simply type your comment and hit ENTER. To comment on a particular object, select the Object, type in your comment and hit ENTER. The comment is added immediately with the date and name of the commenter.

• A yellow post-it note will appear on objects with comments. Click the post-it icon to reveal the comment. You can uncheck the "Show Comment Indicator" checkbox to hide the yellow post-it icons on your diagram.

  

Deleting Comments

With Creately its just as easy to delete the comments you've added when you don't need them anymore. Simply open the Comments Panel, and click on the X icon in the comment you wish to delete. Users can only delete their own comments.

Sharing Comments by Mail

At any point, you can choose to mail all comments associated with a diagram to other collaborators. Look for the "Mail To Collaborators" button at the bottom of the Comments Panel. This displays the E-Mail Notification dialog. Simply choose which comments to share and click Notify Collaborators.

Note - With Creately Desktop, this Mail to Editors feature will be disabled if you're not connected to the web. So make sure you're connected to the internet and activate 'Diagrams Anywhere' feature from the Preferences window before you notify your collaborators via email.
