About This Feature

Overview

Gantt View Comments is a record-level collaboration feature in WPS Office for Windows. It helps teams discuss specific records directly in Gantt view, so schedule context and discussion stay close together. The feature supports posting comments on records and using @mentions to involve teammates in the discussion.

Core tasks include:

Add a comment from the right-click menu when you need to leave a quick note on a record.
Add a comment after expanding a record when you want to review more record details first.
Mention a member in a comment to bring the right person into the discussion.
Delete a posted comment when a message is no longer needed.

This feature fits project scheduling, task follow-up, and team coordination scenarios. When a team works inside a Gantt view, record-based comments make it easier to keep communication attached to the related task.

Capability Summary	In a multi-dimensional table Gantt view, WPS lets users add comments to records and use @mentions for collaboration. Comments can be entered from the right-click menu or from the comment area after expanding a record.	Microsoft Project officially documents task, resource, assignment, and project notes, including note deletion, but this page describes notes rather than a threaded record comment workflow in Gantt view.	Google Sheets officially supports comments, @mentions, replies, and deletion for spreadsheet content such as cells.	Notion officially supports comments, mentions, replies, filters, and deletion across pages and database items.	Adobe Acrobat officially provides comment tools for PDF review and markup workflows.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: comment entry points are tied directly to records in Gantt view. Distinct: schedule context and record discussion stay in the same working area.	Compared with WPS: the official page focuses on notes in Project, not a record comment flow inside a Gantt-style record view.	Compared with WPS: comment features are broad, but they are centered on spreadsheet objects rather than Gantt-view records.	Compared with WPS: database comments are available, but the workflow is based on Notion pages and database views rather than a spreadsheet-style Gantt view.	Compared with WPS: the official workflow is designed for PDF review, not schedule record collaboration.

Overall Conclusion: If your team already plans work in a WPS multi-dimensional table Gantt view, record comments keep discussion closer to the schedule itself. Compared with general spreadsheet comments, database comments, or PDF review comments, this workflow is more aligned with task scheduling and follow-up inside the same view.
