Remarks

Create a Comment

Use the PdfMarkupAnnotationComment members to change the reply’s author, subject and text.

The code sample below creates two nested comments and adds a review to the second comment (the document is opened in DevExpress WinForms PDF Viewer):

C#

private static void AddAnnotationComments(PdfMarkupAnnotationData annotation)
{
    PdfMarkupAnnotationComment comment =
    annotation.AddReply("Reviewer", "Done");
    comment.Subject = "Proofread";

    PdfMarkupAnnotationComment nestedComment =
    comment.AddReply(annotation.Author, "Thanks");
    nestedComment.Subject = "Reviewed";
}

VB.NET

Private Shared Sub AddAnnotationComments(ByVal annotation As PdfMarkupAnnotationData)
    Dim comment As PdfMarkupAnnotationComment = annotation.AddReply("Reviewer", "Done")
    comment.Subject = "Proofread"

    Dim nestedComment As PdfMarkupAnnotationComment = comment.AddReply(annotation.Author, "Thanks")
    nestedComment.Subject = "Reviewed"
End Sub
