Comments

Leave comments pinned to the live prototype or to a moment in a walkthrough, in text, video or both

Comments in Glitterball are pinned to a spot: a place on the prototype, or a moment and an element in a walkthrough. Anyone who can see the version can read its comments. To post, add your name or sign in.

Comment on the live prototype

On a prototype with the Glitterball bar:

1. Choose Comment in the bar. It shows how many comments are on this page.
2. Click the spot you want to comment on. Press Esc or Cancel to stop.
3. Type in Add a comment and choose Post

If you're not signed in, add your name to post as a guest, or choose Sign in. A small Glitterball window opens to sign you in with your email code, then closes and returns you to the prototype.

Open comments stay pinned on the page. Click a pin to read the thread and reply.

Video comments

You can add a short video to any comment or reply on a prototype whose workspace is on Maker.

1. In the comment box, choose the camera icon (Add a video)
2. Allow the camera and microphone for the page if your browser asks
3. Choose Record. A video can be up to 1 minute.
4. Choose Retake to try again, or the cross (Remove the video) to drop it
5. Add a note if you like (Add a note (optional)), then choose Post

Comment on a walkthrough's share page

On a walkthrough's share page, a comment pins to the moment in the recording as well as the element, so readers can jump to it. Threads there also support:

• Replies, which reopen a resolved thread
• @mentions of people in your workspace and anyone already in the thread
• Reactions
• Resolve and Reopen. Resolved threads leave the live prototype.

Who can see and manage comments

• If the version is shared, anyone with the link can read its comments
• If it isn't, only workspace members can read them, and each person can see their own
• Only the author can edit a comment
• The author or a member of the workspace can resolve or delete a thread

Answers to questions

Answers to a walkthrough's questions are comments too. See Ask questions in a walkthrough.

Limits

A comment can be up to 4,000 characters. Each person can post up to 30 comments an hour.
