Mention a collaborator

Type @ in a comment box to pull up a list of your collaborators — drive members and anyone you’ve given project access. Select a name to tag them. Tagged collaborators get an email notification with the contents of your comment.

​

Resolve a comment

Click the circle icon in the top-right corner of a comment box to resolve it. Resolved comments move out of the script and into the archived view.

​

View and sort comments

Click the chat bubble icon at the top right of the editor to show or hide the comment sidebar. With the sidebar open, click the properties icon at the top of the panel and choose a sorting option.

​

View resolved comments

Click the properties icon at the top of the panel to switch between resolved and unresolved comments. To bring a resolved comment back into the script, click the circle icon in its top-right corner.

​

Copying comments

Comments don’t carry over when you copy and paste content between compositions, or when you duplicate a composition. To save your comments as text, open the comment sidebar and select Copy all comments. That copies every comment to your clipboard so you can paste them elsewhere.
