Adding Annotations to Tables

Ramya Priya Updated by Ramya Priya

For table charts, users can add detailed comments directly within each table cell, complete with the option to attach images and documents for comprehensive communication. The “Comments” icon on each table leads to a consolidated view of all remarks, fostering collaboration and dialogue among users.

  1. In a Vizpad, add a new table by navigating Add chart --> Table. Provide the required configurations for creating the table.
  2. Save the Vizpad to comment on a table. Only if the Vizpad is saved, the Comments icon will be enabled.
  3. Click on the Comments icon in the top right corner of the table.
  4. Initially, since there are no comments, there will not be any comments to display.
  1. The consolidated comments section is divided into Cell, Row, and General.
  • Cell - Displays cell-level comments. These provide context or additional details about a specific data point.
  • Row - Displays row-level comments. These are used to discuss or highlight trends, anomalies, or insights relevant to an entire row. This is useful when a particular row's data is related, showing a significant pattern or result that applies across all cells in that row.
  • General - Displays table-level comments. These summarize the overall findings, providing general insights, or setting the scene for the detailed analysis contained within the table.
  1. The comments can be edited or deleted by clicking on the three-dot menu of every comment.
  1. Click on the "Reply" button to respond to a comment and start a thread.
