PLEASE Don't make the user go through a menu to check off a comment! You DOUBLE the time it takes to go through comments.
PLEASE ELIMINATE the need to go through a dropdown menu just to check off a commnet.
IT WAS FINE to have a checkbox. It took HALF THE TIME.
PLEAES FIX

I build books and will have over a thousand markups, comments, annotations on a PDF. To not be able to just check it and it be hidden with a filter with a simple click is ABSOLUTELY INSANE. I'm not sure who's brilliant idea it was to create MORE work for your customers, but it is moronic!

maybe you need a good ux designer to find out checkboxes were a great feature… I'm pretty sure you might know some, if not, i'll be your man…

Bring the checkbox back.

What on earth were Adobe thinking - it's like they actually hate their customers! Just bring the check box back- now!

Crazy decision. Intrigued to know whether user feedback played ANY part in removing this feature – highly doubt it.

Bring the checkbox back! Don't touch something that's not broken...

OMG!!! Yes!!! Bring this back!

Yes! Yes! Yes! Why did they fix what wasn't broken? Half the time I have trouble getting the new menu to even pop up to select the 'mark checkbox' option. It was so much better having it in the lower left of the comment to easily check off when completed.

There are at least 5 threads requesting this change Adobe. Please put back the checkboxes asap. Why you removed them in the first place is beyond me?

Is this a petition? SIgn me up. Adding another whole keystroke is ridiculous. And the different color in the comments interface is also harder to read.

PLEASE add the checkbox back in. This is an enormous part of my workflow and it is such a headache to have to right click, then search for the words every single time. I get documents that have hundreds of comments and this is the only way I can make sure I've addressed every one. Why on earth would you hide it in the first place? A checkbox doesn't take up much space... Seriously PLEASE add it back in!!!

Also please allow the checked notes to be hidden when "filtered by unchecked" is active.

It's just bad UX to have two actions to perform a check/uncheck action.
As mentioned below, it doubles the time needed. I can understand putting the accept/reject/... actions there, as it's clutter, but I really need to be able to accept them in groups.
Dealing with 100s of comments on massive pdfs has become a real pain in the backside now. -

Please put back the checkbox for comment completion. With hundreds of edits to documents it will be very time consuming to have to go through two extra steps for every single comment to mark these boxes. This is going to seriously slow down our work.

This has been a very disappointing change that has added a lot of time to my workflow. Please bring the checkbox-in-the-comment-window back. Quickly.

In the previous version you can easly click on the checkbox, because it was in the same row (view) as the comment. Now you have to click twice to click the checkbox. Please make it as it was!

Hi,
I am a desktop publisher and we work with corrections, this can be a lot of them. in the previous version we could click the checkbox when a correction was done. Now we have to click twice to mark a comment as done. This is not efficient for us, since now it takes twice as long. Please give us the previous option back. Time is money..

This is a disaster for graphic designers like me who have to go through 1000s of corrections on PDF each week. Apart from the fact that I don't see the use of putting it in a menu, I also don't understand what's wrong about having a checkbox in a comment.
The comment-checkbox is an essential workflow-feature. Whoever decided to get rid of it, has never been part of an editing/designing process. There's other things that need to be fixed in Acrobat Pro – disabling features that actually work for the sake of 'visual cleanliness' is just plain stupid.
