Comment

Inserts a comment for a Mechanical parent object. The comment editor creates a fragment of HTML, and the object itself consists of that HTML fragment, a string denoting the author's name, and a color. Report adds the resulting HTML fragment directly in line, in the specified color and notes the author. The Comment window provides a number of formatting features, such as inserting an image or applying various text formats.

Object Properties

The Details Pane for the Comment object contains only one category (Author) and one text entry field (Name).

Tree Dependencies

  • Valid Parent Tree Objects: All objects.

  • Valid Child Tree Objects: None.
