Teamwork Projects - Commenting On Items

  • 0:03 - 0:06
    NARRATOR: Comments in Teamwork projects provide you with
  • 0:06 - 0:10
    a quick and easy way of providing feedback to your teammates.
  • 0:10 - 0:13
    You can add your comments to multiple places in Teamwork projects,
  • 0:13 - 0:19
    including commenting on tasks, milestones, files, and even links.
  • 0:19 - 0:21
    Here we are in the tasks tab of a project,
  • 0:21 - 0:25
    and let's have a look at adding a comment to a task.
  • 0:25 - 0:29
    If we just hover over a task here, and over on the right-hand side,
  • 0:29 - 0:32
    we can see that we have the option to quickly add a comment
  • 0:32 - 0:37
    here. Or alternatively, we can just select the task and then add
  • 0:37 - 0:41
    our comment down here. We can just add our comment here,
  • 0:41 - 0:44
    and up here you can see that we have several formatting options.
  • 0:44 - 0:48
    We have paragraph formatting here. We can have normal.
  • 0:48 - 0:51
    We can make our selected text a quote or we can make our
  • 0:51 - 0:55
    selected text code. Here we can choose to clear formatting.
  • 0:55 - 0:57
    We can use bold, italics, and underline.
  • 0:57 - 0:59
    We can strike through text.
  • 0:59 - 1:02
    We can have ordered and unordered lists.
  • 1:02 - 1:05
    We can decrease or increase our indent.
  • 1:05 - 1:08
    We can add images, we can add links,
  • 1:08 - 1:13
    we can add horizontal lines. We can format our text as code,
  • 1:13 - 1:16
    and we can use quotes. Here, if we increase, we can see that we're
  • 1:16 - 1:19
    quoting, and we can have a nested quote here also.
  • 1:19 - 1:22
    If we decrease, we can get rid of this nest, and if we decrease
  • 1:22 - 1:25
    again, we can deselect this as a quote.
  • 1:25 - 1:29
    Down here we can select who should be notified of this comment.
  • 1:29 - 1:32
    You can see here that Victor is already notified and we can remove
  • 1:32 - 1:36
    his notifications by selecting the x icon next to his name here.
  • 1:36 - 1:39
    If we want to add anyone to our list of notified users,
  • 1:39 - 1:43
    we can just select people here and select as many users as we'd like.
  • 1:43 - 1:48
    Let's say that I want Adrian and Victor to both receive notifications.
  • 1:48 - 1:51
    We just need to select update here. And now both of these
  • 1:51 - 1:55
    users will receive notifications. Here in this drop-down,
  • 1:55 - 1:57
    we can select the privacy of this comment.
  • 1:57 - 1:59
    Who can view this comment?
  • 1:59 - 2:01
    This is currently everybody on the project.
  • 2:01 - 2:03
    However, we can go down here and select
  • 2:03 - 2:06
    specific users who would be the only ones to see
  • 2:06 - 2:09
    this comment. Here, we can choose to attach a file, and
  • 2:09 - 2:11
    once we're happy with our comment, we just need to
  • 2:11 - 2:14
    select "Save comment" and our comment has been added.
  • 2:14 - 2:18
    Over here, we can edit our comment. And if we select the options
  • 2:18 - 2:21
    drop-down here, you can see that we can delete our comment
  • 2:21 - 2:24
    or we can modify the properties of our comment.
  • 2:24 - 2:26
    Here we can change who wrote this comment.
  • 2:26 - 2:30
    Let's say that I want to say that Anthony Stark actually made this comment.
  • 2:30 - 2:34
    Here we can change the date or the time that the comment was made.
  • 2:34 - 2:36
    Then we can just select "Update comment"
  • 2:36 - 2:39
    and now we can see that our changes have been made.
  • 2:39 - 2:42
    Since the user who made this comment is now no longer myself,
  • 2:42 - 2:46
    you can see that over here I have the option to add a like to
  • 2:46 - 2:49
    this comment. If we just click this here, you can see that now
  • 2:49 - 2:52
    I've liked this comment and I can quickly unlike it here
  • 2:52 - 2:55
    also. Going back to our tasks tab now.
  • 2:55 - 2:58
    We can see any new unread comments
  • 2:58 - 3:01
    on our tasks by looking at this green speech bubble here.
  • 3:01 - 3:05
    You can see that there's two unread comments for this task.
  • 3:05 - 3:09
    If we hover over this, you can see that we can quickly mark this as read.
  • 3:09 - 3:13
    We can quickly reply to a comment or we can choose to view all
  • 3:13 - 3:17
    the comments in this task. If you prefer to quickly add comments to
  • 3:17 - 3:22
    tasks rather than having to go into that task itself, that's really easy.
  • 3:22 - 3:26
    Just hover over the task and select this "Add comment" option here.
  • 3:26 - 3:29
    In the pop-up window here, this all works the exact same way
  • 3:29 - 3:32
    as I showed you earlier. Let's just close that window now.
  • 3:32 - 3:35
    As well as being able to add comments to tasks,
  • 3:35 - 3:38
    we can also go up here and add comments to our milestones.
  • 3:38 - 3:41
    Again, we just need to hover over the milestone and select
  • 3:41 - 3:43
    "Add comment." To add a comment to a file,
  • 3:43 - 3:45
    we just need to go to the "Files" tab here.
  • 3:45 - 3:50
    Again, hover over the file and select this plus icon here.
  • 3:50 - 3:52
    If we just select that, again, we're met with this
  • 3:52 - 3:55
    pop-up window where we can quickly add our comment.
  • 3:55 - 3:58
    We can also add comments to notebooks.
  • 3:58 - 4:02
    Again, just hover over the notebook and select the plus icon.
  • 4:02 - 4:05
    We can also add comments to links.
  • 4:05 - 4:09
    Again, just hover over your link and select the plus icon, and that's it.
  • 4:09 - 4:13
    That's how easy it is to add comments in Teamwork projects.
