Lock the position of 3D models for comment replies

When replying to a comment on a 3D model, you can lock a specific view of the asset to your reply so that a user reading it can clearly see what you mean. For an animated 3D model, you can also lock the timestamp and animation you are commenting on to your reply.

1. Open the asset in a project. See Browse projects.

   On the Comments tab, existing comments are displayed, including the user who commented and when. To learn more about changing the comments displayed and the asset view, see View asset comments.

2. Adjust the asset view to the position you want to show in your comment. If it is an animated model, pause it at the time stamp you want to show in your reply.

3. To reply to a comment, click Reply below the comment.

4. To lock the view settings for your reply, click the dropdown arrow in the comment box, and select Lock with viewer settings.

5. Animated 3D assets only: To lock the asset at a time stamp, click the dropdown arrow in the comment box, and select Lock with time stamp.

6. To write your reply, click the Add a comment field.

7. Enter text in the comment field.

   If the asset view changed while you were entering your comment text, do one of the following:

   • To lock the new asset view to your reply, click Update lock below the comment.

   • To use the original view you set in step 3, move on to the next step.

8. Click Reply.

   Your reply is added to the Comments tab.
