question about viewing while annotating texts

[Danza Udlap]

Hi everyone.  Has any one found a setting which allows students to read and post commentary without seeing other peoples highlights and comments.  I know you can set the visibility of your comments to only yourself and if everyone did this than you would only see your own comments.  This is a complicated process if afterwards you do want to see all comments for a group discussion.  It seems each student would have to go through each comment and change its visibility.  Is there something like a focus button for comments that allows all the other comments to disappear while you are reading and writing and then when you are ready you can make them all appear again.  Could there be one, if I have missed it?

Thanks, Ray Schwartz

Hello Ray, 

Users can turn off/on the highlights while reading by pressing the eye icon right above the comment list on the sidebar, this will remove any highlights on the document.  see attached screenshot.

Hope that helps!
