Reply is especially useful in shared reviews, enabling participants to read each other’s comments. Upon creation, replies appear directly in the pop-up notes and in the Comment panel. Replies are shown below the original comments. You can hover the cursor over a comment on the document page to see all replies under it. However, if you create any sub-reply (replying to an existing reply), the pop-up notes will only show the number of sub-replies under the parent reply, meaning you need to open the Comment Panel to see them all. Sub-replies also cannot be edited directly within the pop-up notes.
