There is already Author property but it is not filled automatically. It should be filled using the RequestCurrentUserInfo event of the RadDocument, which is currently only used for track changes revisions.
Hello Duman,
I do not think that this is connected to the comments. And this is not the appropriate place to discuss such issues. I would like to kindly ask you to open a new support ticket for this where you can add a small project that shows your case and any other related details (since the ticket is private you can share your documents as well). This way our team will be able to properly investigate the case and provide you with a timely answer.
Thank you for your understanding.
Regards,
Dimitar

Hi Martin,
thank you for your good advice. That os what I did. Thanks.
On top of it, I placed a permission on that area, to keep it write protected.
I was also trying to set an individual-permission on the rest of the comment document, to allow changes only to the initiating user. However that part also keeps remaining write protected. Could it be that the allowance process does not work within comments?
Thanks in advance.

Hello Monega,
I am afraid I cannot engage with a specific date for this feature implementation, so make sure to cast your vote for its implementation and subscribe to the task by clicking the Follow button so we can notify you when its status changes.
Until this feature is developed I could suggest subscribing to the CommandExecuted event and inserting the Autor and DateTime.Now in the comment body in the following manner:
void radRichTextBox_CommandExecuted(object sender, Telerik.Windows.Documents.RichTextBoxCommands.CommandExecutedEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Command is InsertCommentCommand)
{
var commentEnd = this.radRichTextBox.Document.Selection.GetAnnotationMarkersOfType<CommentRangeEnd>().First();
RadDocumentEditor editor = new RadDocumentEditor(commentEnd.Comment.Body);
string username = "Anonymous";
if (this.radRichTextBox.CurrentUser != null)
{
username = this.radRichTextBox.CurrentUser.Username;
}
editor.Insert(username + " at " + DateTime.Now);
}
}

Martin

Hello Martin,
I'm also very interested in seeing this functionality or at least finding a reliable workaround.
Barely finding myself thinking about own custom annotations ... I know it'll break my neck :)
Happy to hear from this thread.

Hello James,
Indeed this functionality is an essential part of the comments feature and I will increase its priority in our internal item.
However, I cannot engage with a specific date for its implementation because the planning for the current release is already done and is not included. So, please, continue to follow the item so we can update you with status changes.
Thank you for your understanding and for bringing it to our attention.
Regards,
Martin

This is functionality that should be added - or at minimum give the ability to modify the display of what is shown in the comments panel - not just the color of the comment
Hello Stanley,
I am sorry to hear you are experiencing issues due to a currently not supported functionality. This feature is not scheduled for implementation at this point as the team is working on more demanded tasks. Due to the tight planning, I am unable to say when it might be implemented.
Please, make sure you cast your vote for its implementation and continue following this item so we can notify you about status changes on it.
Regards,
Martin
