How to navigate comments

You can navigate through your document by moving from one segment with a comment to the next segment with a comment or by moving from comment to comment.

About this task

If you choose the first method of navigating comments, you will only move to the first comment in a segment. If there are any more comments in the segment, you will skip these when you continue to navigate and move straight to the next segment containing a comment. If you use the second method, you will move to every comment in the document.
