Cell Comments & Notes
Comments vs. Notes
Microsoft recently changed its naming convention for comments. "Comments" now refers to threaded comments that support replies and resolution, while "notes" now refers to what was formerly known as "comments".
Resolve CommentsResolve unresolved comments in selected cells. When multiple worksheets are selected, all unresolved comments on those sheets will be resolved. Reopen CommentsReopen resolved comments in selected cells. When multiple worksheets are selected, all resolved comments on those sheets will be reopened. Fix NotesCell notes (formerly called "comments") can become displaced relative to their parent cells, and/or become flattened (height = zero) very quickly while modeling. Macabacus' Fix Comment tool restores selected cells' comments to their default positions relative to their parent cells and optionally resizes. When multiple worksheets are selected, this operation will be performed on all comments on those sheets. In the Excel > Format > Other section in Macabacus' Settings dialog, you can specify whether you want to both reposition and resize comments, or just reposition them. If you elect to resize comments, you can specify whether you want Macabacus to resize comments to fit content, or resize comments to default dimensions. Remove AuthorRemove the author's name from all cell notes in the active workbook. This might be handy when you want to send a workbook to a client but maintain anonymity for the workbook's creator, for example. |
