A guide to comments and annotations

 

Gathering feedback on designs and prototypes is a core feature of Marvel and is a fantastic way to improve your work, get sign-off, and ship products faster. 

By default, every prototype in Marvel has the option to leave a comment or annotation on a specific area of interest. This gives you the flexibility of general feedback or targetted to certain parts of your design.

Once a comment is left on a project, the owner, collaborators and other commenters will receive an email notification informing them.

If you want to bring someone outside of the project into the conversation, simply type '@' to mention them and they'll receive an email notification with your comment directed at them.
