# How to provide Comments {% embed url="" %} What is collaboration with comments? It's more efficient to have all of your project notes and comments together in one document rather than having separate documents that you have to reference. ## Turning Comments On & Off The **Comments** or speech bubble icon is found on your Canvas toolbar. Click on the icon to turn the Comments feature on or off. When Comments are turned on, the icon will be purple and the Comments Window will pop up.

## Adding Comments to your Canvas * Place the purple speech bubble icon on the area(s) you'd like to leave your comment. When the icon is placed, a window will open up that allows you to input your comment. Hit **Post** after making your notes. * The comment you added will appear in the **Comments window** on the right side of your Canvas. * You can mention a user in your comment by typing the **@** symbol and then typing in the user's name. An email notification is sent when someone is mentioned in a Comment. {% hint style="info" %} If you mention @ someone who does not have access to your Canvas or a Canoa account, a popup will prompt you to **invite** that new user. {% endhint %}

The Comments window acts like a running list of edits or notes that you can keep track of. * Clicking on a Comment in the Comments window will fly to the area in the Canvas where the Comment lives.

## Editing or Deleting Comments * You can edit or delete a comment either from the Comments window or directly in a Comment. Click on the **3-dot menu** to **Edit**, **Delete** or mark your comment as **Resolved**.

Edit, Delete, Resolve comments directly in the Comment

## Resolved Comments * The **Resolved** tab shows a running log of resolved comments. In the **Resolved** tab, you can ***Edit***, **Delete** or **Re-open** comments as needed.
