Set and change a status

Set a status

Setting a status is useful for keeping track of comments that you have read or that require further action. You can use the status to indicate which comments you want to accept, reject, cancel, complete, defer, or mark for future consideration. 

By setting the review status, you can show or hide a certain set of comments, and let review participants know how you are going to handle the comment. Once the review status is set, you cannot remove the review status display from history in the Review History list, even if you change the review status to None.

Change the status of a comment

• With the Hand command, the Select Annotation command, or the corresponding tool selected, right-click a comment in the document pane or Comments panel you want to change the status of, choose Set Status > choose one option from the pop-up Context menu, and then select an option.
• To view a markup’s history of changes:

1. Right-click the markup in the document pane or Comments panel, and then choose Properties.
2. In the Properties dialog box, click the Review History tab to view the history of status changes people have made to a markup.
