Reply to Comments & Mark as Done

You can collaborate with other members of your team more easily, taking advantage of the improved annotation support.

The Mark as done option allows you to mark a discussion thread as being completed. This is useful for marking comments that have been addressed, leaving only those that still need some attention.

Edit MathML Equations

Actions were added to help you easily add topic references and cross references.
