Example of a sidebar of annotations (33.40 KB, image/png)

Description Germán Poo-Caamaño 2013-06-28 19:06:33 UTC 
This comes from a suggestion in https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=680880

This is specific for comments (annotation).  When there are several annotations opened, it is tedious to close the annotation windows one by one.  Similarly, when the annotations are closed and the user needs to find a specific one, it is necessary to open them one by one.

Example of a sidebar of annotations

On second thoughts, if we could provide a better view of the annotations, we should not need to collapse/expand all the comments annotated.

If the annotations (comments) were presented as in the screenshot, there would not be necessary to have all annotations opened, but only the active one (the one the user explicitly ask to see).  No need to collapse/expand all in the document because the sidebar would provide the proper overview.
Comment 2 Germán Poo-Caamaño 2013-06-29 01:12:57 UTC 
In https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=703296 you can see an example of how annotations expanded can make an unusable a document.

Comment 4 Germán Poo-Caamaño 2017-09-26 18:25:22 UTC 
Reopening as bug 689811 is about hiding the annotations, which is different than expanding and collapsing them.
