Overview

Have you ever felt restricted by the character limit when adding comments to a dimension comment cell in a story table? Now you don’t have to!

Previously, comments within a dimension cell were capped at 255 characters, which often meant having to shorten, simplify, or even omit valuable context and insights. This limitation can possibly make it difficult to provide the full picture for a story, especially when trying to convey data justifications or collaborative notes.

With the latest update, that constraint is a thing of the past. You can now enter comments with up to 1000 characters. This expanded limit gives you the flexibility to share more comprehensive information with your colleagues. This new feature helps you communicate more effectively without worrying about space.

Below is the difference between a 255-character limit and 1000 characters.

Example: 255-character limit

Example: 1000-character limit

So go ahead and add that extra detail and include that key insight. Your story comments just got a lot more expressive!
