Comments
Comments in cards can help you to collaborate with other KanBo users. It is a perfect tool for short conversations related to card content. Use them to inform your colleagues about the news or ask for details.

Comments written by you are marked with light green color.
Try mentioning to let your colleagues know that the message is meant for them.
To filter out comments from other card messages and activities, set the detail level of the card’s activity stream to comments.

Any space member can write comments on cards. Comments are card actions, that are part of the card activity stream.
- Open the space.
- Enter the desired card.
- Click on the white rectangular field at the top of the card activity stream.

Note that you can use Rich Text here.
If you want to stop writing a comment, click the Cancel button.
There is an additional option to send a comment in the form of an email. Read more about this in our instructions.

FAQ
What is the difference between chat and comments?
Comments are located in the card activity stream. Only users who follow the card will be notified of new comments. Chat is more like a public place, but again, only space users who follow the space will be notified of new messages. You can give likes to chat messages.
Can I edit my comment?
You can edit or delete your comment only for 5 minutes after sending it.
Can I see when someone is typing a comment?
If you are on the card where someone is typing a comment, you will see the typing indicator with the user’s avatar.
How do I get someone to be notified of my comment if they are not following the card?
Use @mentions to tag the user in a comment.
