Commenting On Your Assets
The commenting feature is a means to clip hints or thoughts about an asset and to share them with other users.
To add a comment to an asset opened in the Preview window:
 
1. Make sure that user comments are switched on via the appropriate button in the Preview toolbar.
2. From the Comments toolbar, select the kind of comment you want to add by clicking the respective icon: either a general comment (“just a comment”), or a comment that is tied to a specific area on the preview of an image.
3. For a general comment, just enter it in the text box.
For a comment that is tied to a specific area, draw a rectangle or a polygon or place a sticky note symbol in a suitable position, then enter your comment into the text box.
4. When you close the Preview window, your comments are automatically saved and subsequently displayed to other users.
The comments and notes you add are stored as metadata in the asset’s record and can be searched and retrieved anytime – provided that your Cumulus Administrator has prepared the catalog to support searching in comments.
