Axure Cloud discussion comments

Axure Cloud discussions allow you, your teammates, and your stakeholders to provide and respond to feedback directly on your project pages.


Discussions are available to anyone with access to the project, and members of the workspace containing the project can choose to receive notifications via email, Slack, or Microsoft Teams when comments are added, resolved, and unresolved.

Posting comments​

  1. Navigate to the project in your web browser and click the Comment icon at the top-right of the screen.

  2. Click Add comment.

  3. Click anywhere on the design to drop a pin for your comment.

  4. Select a color for the pin, enter your comment in the text area, and click Comment.

  5. When you're done adding comments, click Done to the right, or press the ESC key on your keyboard.

Posting comments as a visitor​

After typing your comment and clicking Comment, you can either sign in to your Axure Cloud account or provide your email address to post as a visitor. If you choose to comment as a visitor, your email address will only be saved for the current browser session.

Mentioning users in comments​

You can @mention other users who are members of the workspace that the project belongs to by typing @ or clicking the @ icon below the comment box. Then, select the name of the user you want to mention from the dropdown list.

When you @mention a user, they will receive a notification if they have discussion notifications enabled.

Screenshots in discussions​

If you're viewing a project in Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge, you can include screenshots in your discussion comments by clicking the camera icon at the bottom-right of the comment box. Click-and-drag on the page to define the area you want to capture, and then release your mouse to save the image.

Screenshots appear below the text of the comment, and you can include multiple screenshots with each comment. Click a screenshot's thumbnail to enlarge it.

Note

Screenshots can be viewed in any browser, but they can only be captured in Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge:

Clicking the camera icon will prompt you to install the extension if it isn't already installed.

Editing, deleting, and resolving comments​

Use the options in a discussion box to edit a comment's text and screenshots, change the thread's pin color, delete a comment, or mark the thread as resolved.

warning

Deleting a comment removes it from the project entirely. If you delete the first comment in a thread, the entire thread will be deleted.

You cannot recover deleted comments. Only use this option if you're sure the comment is no longer needed.

Resolved comments​

Resolving a comment or thread hides it but does not delete it. You can view resolved comments at any time by clicking the filter button, then selecting Show resolved. This will show the resolved comments in a separate list below the button. Pins for these comments will also be shown, and they will be colored grey to distinguish them from pins for unresolved comments.

If you need to unresolve a comment, click the More Options button ••• and select Unresolve comment.

Disabling discussions​

When publishing a project from Axure RP, disable the option for Allow comments in the Publish Project dialog to disable discussions on the project.

To disable discussions on a project that has already been published — or to enable discussions — click the Allow comments toggle from the details pane of the project's overview in Axure Cloud.
