Commenting on Projects in the magicplan Cloud

Add comments to your floor plans and collaborate with your team in comment threads.

Commenting Mode is a valuable feature that facilitates effective collaboration and communication within your project. By simply clicking on an object, room, or floor, you can easily share feedback and initiate a comment thread to discuss any changes or ideas related to the project.

Different ways you can use the commenting feature:

  • Add comments related to the floor plan or specific objects

  • Move comments within the floor plan

  • Answer comments from others

  • Mention others in comments

  • Mark comments as resolved or unread

  • Increase and improve collaboration among workspaces and teams

Take a look at how the new commenting feature works!
