Extra features on a collaborative document

Collaborators section

On a collaborative document you and your students have access to the Collaborators button found next to the undo at the top of the document.

When selected it opens the Collaborators section on the right.

Each user can hide another users annotations by selecting them in the Collaborators section, as seen below the annotation that Gale made is now hidden on the document.

✏️ Each user hides other users annotations just for themselves, it doesn't hide it for all other users on the collaborative document.

There is also a Hide All button at the bottom of the Collaborator section, this helps if you want to only see your own annotations or specific peoples annotations in a big class

Teacher delete student annotations

As a teacher you have the unique option when hovering over a students annotation to delete it. It will prompt you with a warning that you are deleting someone else's annotation.

Students aren't able to do this, the only thing students are able to do to other peoples annotations is view who made them. They are unable to edit them in any way.
