Hi,
I am evaluating the product for future purchase and was wondering if the solution allows for the creation of private and public annotation capability? An example would be one set of annotations could be made and read by all authenticated users, but only a certain user group would be able to create and view confidential comments or annotations?

Thank you,

Hi tbrock,

We do not have any methods to set an anotation to private or public depending on the user. This being said, you can achieve this fairly easily by using our annotation properties. Feel free to check out our AnnotationManager class.

We have methods to set the visibility of annotations to false. You can use this property to toggle between setting the visibility from true to false depending factors you can set.
For users who cannot view this annotation, they are still able to click the invisible annot. In order to remove this function you can either decide to remove the annotation or flatten/burn it to the page so that it gets "deleted/integrated into the page as invisible".

Let me know if you have any further questions.

Regards,
