Editing & Deleting Comments
Once you’ve started leaving comments on your tracks, you might find yourself wanting to refine your feedback or remove something you no longer need. Whether you’re cleaning up a thread of conversation or correcting a typo, editing and deleting your comments is straightforward.
This guide walks you through how to update comments you’ve posted and how to remove them when they’re no longer relevant.
Finding Your Comments
Section titled “Finding Your Comments”Your comments appear in the Comments widget within the activity panel on the right side of the screen. The widget shows all comments linked to the currently selected track group, displayed in reverse chronological order with the newest first.
Comments that include timestamps from the waveform player will show their timecode badge, making it easy to identify which part of the bounce they refer to. You’ll see your own comments displayed alongside any comments collaborators have left on shared tracks.
Editing a Comment
Section titled “Editing a Comment”You can update the text of any comment you’ve written. This is useful for fixing typos, adding clarification, or refining your feedback as the track evolves.
How to Edit
Section titled “How to Edit”- Locate your comment in the Comments widget list
- Click the Edit icon (a pencil symbol) next to the comment
- Modify the text in the input field that appears
- Click Save to confirm your changes, or click Cancel to discard them
Only the comment’s non-empty text is updated through this operation.
What You Can Edit
Section titled “What You Can Edit”Editing changes the comment text only. It does not change authorization or provide a way to mutate anchors, pin state, timecodes, bounces, or creation metadata.
Deleting a Comment
Section titled “Deleting a Comment”Sometimes a comment no longer applies, was posted to the wrong location, or simply needs to be removed. Deleting a comment permanently removes it from the track.
How to Delete
Section titled “How to Delete”- Find the comment you want to remove in the Comments widget
- Click the Delete icon (a trash can symbol) next to the comment
- Confirm the deletion when prompted
The comment is removed immediately and cannot be recovered. Deleting a comment does not affect other comments on the same track.
Understanding Who Can Edit or Delete
Section titled “Understanding Who Can Edit or Delete”Your ability to modify or remove comments is tied to ownership. You can only edit or delete comments that you authored. This prevents accidental or unauthorized removal of feedback from other collaborators.
If you’re working on a shared project, you’ll see comments from collaborators alongside your own, but the edit and delete options only appear on comments you own. Collaborators retain full control over their own comments.
Pinning vs. Editing
Section titled “Pinning vs. Editing”Pinning is a separate operation. It requires a collaborator row with master_split > 0; it does not extend author-only edit or delete authorization.
Comments and Track Changes
Section titled “Comments and Track Changes”Editing or deleting a comment is separate from file and track maintenance. This guide guarantees only the author-checked comment update and deletion operations; it does not promise file recovery or comment relinking when a bounce changes.
