I mean to add a comment directly from the context menu (as currently happens in LO calc). Currently you have to take a keyboard shortcut or go to the Insert menu to add a comment. It would be much more intuitive to have this input directly from the context menu after selecting the text. Additionally one must consider that other office software (office 2013/365 and google docs) incorporate this little feature. thanks
(In reply to comment #0) Additionally one must consider that other office software (office 2013/365 and google docs)incorporate this little feature. Erratum: I was wrong about something, and he remembered sincerely PowerPoint funcionaliad had it, but not so. However, even defend the idea because it greatly simplifies the task of managing comments (View functioning Google Drive Presentations). Thanks
I agree with this request.
I support this request. Having "Insert Comment" added to the context menu of a text selection does sound very logical to me. It prevents users from having to access the top menu and remember a keyboard shortcut. Thus, as a user it is very intuitive to look for this function in the context menu. What are your thoughts? Thankfully, ~Robert
IIRC it was removed not too long ago because of simplicity. But would have to dig BZ for a reference.
I will add the function to writer->text impress->drawtext context menu and the reason is simple. The context menues are not that big AND in writer when you use record track changes the preview and next items are on bottom to comment so it's maybe easier to understood what preview and next are for.
