Mentions and Hashtags in Commentary<\/h2>\n

This version of Explorer introduces mentions @<\/strong> and hashtags #<\/strong> in the commentary.<\/p>\n

When adding a comment in Explorer, you can type an at @<\/strong> symbol, followed by one or more characters, then choose a user<\/strong> from the list of Explorer users that appears.<\/p>\n

You can also type in the hash #<\/strong> symbol, followed by one or more characters, then choose an entity<\/strong> from the list of Explorer entities. Entities can also be included in Knowledge Management fields in this way.<\/p>\n

Live Preview<\/h3>\n

When adding a comment, there is now a Live Preview<\/strong> tab below the edit box, showing the entity and user names, if any have been used.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After saving, the pills appear as they did in the Live Preview<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
