Adding or Editing a Comment
This topic describes the different ways to add or edit a comment in Bizview HTML Client.
This topic contains the following sections:
Adding a Comment
A new general comment can be added in three different ways:
Clicking the + icon in the Comments panel to the right.
Clicking the General Comment button in the ribbon.
Right-clicking in a comment block in the spreadsheet and selecting Add General Comment.
When adding a new comment, the following dialog displays:
Enter your comment in the field to the left.
Connect the comment to a Category by selecting the drop-down menu in the lower-left corner.
Caution: The comment must be connected to a category; however, the block list can be left empty if the comment should not be inserted in any comment block in the spreadsheet. For more information, see Inserting a Comment Block in Spreadsheets.
Each comment must be linked to at least one value in the Linked Values section to the right. In the above example, Bizview automatically added three linked values. If any value is dark grey, the template designer has defined that linked value as mandatory and you (as a user) will not be able to remove it. Light grey values can be selected, and can thereby be removed by you (as a user) if you do not want that particular value to be connected to the comment.
To add an additional linked value, click the + icon in the upper-right corner in the Linked Values section and select the value you want to link.
Save the comment.
After you have saved the comment, you can open it again and add attachments and so on.
