Tip: Marginalia Annotation Tool

There is a very useful but subtle feature here in SCoPE for annotating forum posts called Marginalia. Here's how it works:
  • Open a forum discussion thread
  • Select "my annotations" from the pull-down menu at the top right
  • Highlight text in a forum post then press the keyboard "enter" button (or mouse over to the right until you see a vertical yellow line and click)
  • A small dash will appear in the margin
  • Type your annotation
  • By default your annotations are public. You can make them private by clicking on the small o icon to the right of your text.
That's it!

You can view your annotations or all public annotations by clicking the summary link beside the annotations pull-down menu.
