Comment Tool Improvements - Text formatting, etc.

(1) I would like to have more text formatting options available in the Comment Tool, such as:

  • set different format for selected words (color, bold, underline, size..)
  • indenting
  • bullet list or numbered list

(2) Option to remove or recolor the blue outline of the comment box. (Especially when I have a comment in a color-filled comment box, I would prefer a comment box without a dark outline.) 

 

(3) UX -  Add an arrow cursor to indicate resizing functionality

hi @terry10 thanks for posting! In the meantime for (2), you can remove the outline by choosing None under Shape:

@CristonS, I would like to remove the outline, but keep the shaded shape.
