New: Attachment annotations

[Jason]

We just launched a feature called attachment annotations that lets you leave comments in a specific position on an Airtable attachment. You can give fast, clear, actionable feedback on any type of visual asset to help speed up your creative process.

We currently support annotations on images (JPEGs, PNGs, and GIFs) and videos (MP4 and WebM). For more information on how to use this new feature, please see this support article for specifics and our blog post for a broader look at the asset review process.

And, we’d love your feedback! Leave any comments or feedback here in this topic.

I read through the article. My question is in regards to annotations and comments on an image On a MOBILE device.

I believe the article addresses computer uploads. Not if comments can be made when uploading using mobile devices.

Jason:

This is currently available on our web and desktop apps.

Hi @Denise_Yuh , at the moment this feature is only available on web and desktop.

Is there any way to zoom on images? This feature is only partially useful if the image is small enough for the monitor aspect ratio. If we want to annotate things like webpage screenshots, app designs, infographics, etc, this is really not a feasible tool unless we can zoom and pan around the image like most other annotation tools.

It would be especially great if you can transfer the annotation into page designer for print outs.
And different types of annotations arrows and lines.

I would like to add my voice to those who have requested PDF annotations. (Currently, my web designers are having to convert an email proof to multiple JPGs for copywriters to annotate during editing.)

This is a great, intuitive tool - thank you! Can the functionality be extended slightly to save the annotations as new fields? For example, if I draw a box, I would love for that “cropped” portion to be saved as a new attachment (or record) with the associated comment also saved. Our application is for drawing bounding boxes and extracting labels. Thank you!

Hi concerning the annotation tool for web/ desktop. The annotation allows to comment on a single image, is there a feature/ function/ plugin where I would be able to annotate as a batch/ Album as well?

Ie: When we are viewing multiple image and there is a single adjustment needed for the entire samples (15+ images), we would like to address it as a global comment
