Create a comment with multiple "leaders"?

Post by Peter2 »

I don't believe that it's possible, but sometimes it is (could be) necessary to use a comment with multiple leaders which lead to different positions in the document.

Is it possible?

Hi Peter,

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by:

What type of annotation are you thinking of and what do you mean by a leader? It sounds like you want a bookmark or link to a location(s) on the page.

Sorry if I am missing the point.
Best regards

Hi Paul

sorry, I know "Leader" from CAD which means the "arrow / connecting line" between a "comment / a text area" and the position to which the text is referring to. What's the correct word for it?

Please take a look at the attached fake-image to show what I mean

Hello Peter2,

I see what it is you mean, and I would say calling it a "leader" would be appropriate. At this point, it is not possible to do; however, I will make a feature request. This is indeed a good idea and I can imagine some very useful implications for it.

Thank you very much for the suggestion!

Hi Robert,

The request is in and your voice has certainly been heard. Do please be aware though, that we cannot guarantee the implementation of the feature, ultimately it's up to John (CEO) and the Dev. Team.
