Navigating between comments and commented items
Clicking a comment or its reply in the comments pane opens the commented item in the content pane and selects the commented area. If the comment is graphical, clicking it in the comments pane opens the commented item in the content pane and selects the comment. Navigation between comments and commented items work both ways. If you select a commented item or a graphical comment in the content pane, the related comment is selected in the comments pane. If you select an item in the content pane that has several comments, the list of comments opens and you can select the comment you want find. The figures below display how graphical comments and items with textual comments are displayed in the content pane.
