Is it not a different part entirely. </div></blockquote><div>We had/have a lot of comments in our worlds that have been just text, like this:</div><div><br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span><i>LT: Maybe we should...</i></div><div><br></div><div>Especially on some documentation worlds these were really annotations and opinions – not part of the documentation or whatever a world originally showed. The annotation with its mouse-over behavior offers a less distracting way to add further information or opinions, while being easily readable through hovering. It also adds the author and a timestamp to alleviate discussions. The "convert to annotation" menu item of text is a convenient way to convert existing "text comments" to instances of the new part...</div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>An annotation part, could reveal a whole world when rolled over, the<br>annotation-world can contain anything. Ok that is exactly what the pin does,<br>so I still don't get the "convert to annotation" menu item.</div></blockquote></div><div>The current annotation part is only a part and wasn't meant to hold complete worlds. In my opinion, it's easier and more straightforward to just use a world, while using the annotations to add more details, side thoughts or opinion that do not fit the main line of argument or flow of a tutorial...But if you like such a "world-holding"-part, there's definitely space in the PartsBin for it..so feel free to build one :-)</div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div>Lauritz</div></body></html>
