Viewing resolved threads on desktop

Head to the three-dot menu in the top right of your doc to Show resolved comments, if you find you need them again later.

Deleting comments

Use the three-dot menu in the top right of a comment to delete the thread.



Converting comments to questions & answers

You can convert comments to  Questions & Answers  with to-do date, participants, and a clear owner, when simple comments won't suffice. Just click on the three-dot menu in the top right of a comment and select  Convert to question .
