Reply to comments
Replies to comments are especially useful in shared and browser-based reviews, when participants can read each others’ comments. They can also be used by review initiators to let reviewers know how their suggestions are being implemented. When one or more reviewers reply to a comment, the set of replies is called a thread. All replies in a thread appear in the pop-up note and in the Comments List. Replies are indented below the original comment. The number of replies that a comment has received appears in a box when you place the pointer over the comment.
