Welcome to the heart of creative collaboration - the Canvas! In this guide, we'll introduce you to the Canvas, its features, and how it revolutionizes the way you collaborate with your team.
What is the Canvas?
The Canvas on Commented is a virtual workspace that allows you to overlay comments directly onto your live website. Imagine it as a digital canvas where you can pinpoint ideas, suggestions, and improvements with precision. It's not just about words; you can visually illustrate your thoughts on specific sections of a web page, making comments clearer, and more actionable.
Key Features of the Canvas
1. Commenting: Click anywhere on a web page to add comments. Whether it's a design element, functionality issue, or a creative suggestion, you can leave comments exactly where they matter.
2. Interactive Pins: Each comment becomes a pin on the Canvas. Clicking on a pin reveals the associated feedback, creating an interactive experience for everyone involved.
3. Collaborative Workspace: Invite team members to the Canvas. Everyone can contribute with a comment, fostering a seamless collaboration in real-time.
4. Contextual Understanding: By attaching comments directly to web elements, you eliminate confusion about what's being discussed. Contextual understanding leads to quicker, and more accurate resolutions.
5. Visual Annotations: Use tools to create visual annotations. Add texts, emojis, drawings, or images to emphasize your points visually.
6. Workflow Insights: Keep track of comment statuses โ resolved or unresolved. Easily see which comment has been addressed and which needs further attention.
