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

Bring back the checkbox. I think everyone has made it pretty clear why. We'll forgive you. Otherwise, we'll invoice you on our clients' behalf.

Please bring the checkmark boxes back.
As a matter of a fact: please return the previous version which was far more useful. Also the way you can attach a pdf to an e-mail (with an e-mailclient!) is worsened again. In a far history you could do that with one click. Before there was a simple popup. Now you have to click in several places... The horror. -

PLEASE HEAR YOUR CUSTOMERS! BRING BACK THE CHECKMARK BOX! My index finger already has arthritis from so many clicks. Please consider the efficiency of your customer's workflow. Also, I can't even sort because DC locks up and does not respond. ALSO have the next comment land in the same place with the checkmark in the same place and then the comment disappears so I can speed through my jobs! Acrobat Pro 9 did that and I've missed ever since. I have over 200 comments per document. Catalog design - think about it. LISTEN TO YOUR CUSTOMERS CRIES!

I can't image I have more to add than what's been said already: bring back the checkbox. Workflow takes at least twice as long now for revisions to documents

Hands up if you work in publishing.
Right?
Large documents. Collaborative teams.Revisions in the 100s and even 1000s.
ADOBE you are a publishing program. Please talk to PUBLISHERS before you make INTERFACE updates.
Please return the checkbox.
Meanwhile you have debilitated my team. -

It's actually worse than I thought. I've gone through one set of corrections, using the Shift+k button to add a checkbox to the comment. Then I've asked the document to only show unchecked comments. However, if I need to copy text out of a comment in the PDF and add it into my InDesign file, I have to go to the drop down menu and choose 'Copy text'. If I click directly into the comment itself and copy the text, when I want to apply Shift+k to the comment to add a tick box and get rid of the comment, it just puts a K into the comment box (replacing the text that the person commented on). To get rid of it, I have to instead click OUT of this comment, onto another comment, then go BACK to this comment and do Shift+k. PLEASE, PLEASE, I BEG you Acrobat, give us back our checkbox. I have NEVER written to you before, over many many years of using the whole Creative Suite, I usually get by and find ways around things to make them suit me, but this is an absolute DISASTER of a change for me, as I do thousands of corrections via PDF every week and this is literally cutting my productivity in half.

Thank God I'm not alone on this one. Please bring this back!!! I don't have time to waste with menus!

OMG, have just updated and there's NO CHECKBOX???? When I get a PDF of corrections for my work (large books), there can be up to thousands of comments that I need to filter through. I set up the documents to only show unchecked boxes and once I've taken the comment on board the checkmark is ticked and the comment disappears. Simple. Now I've to double the workload by going to a drop down menu? Are you for real Acrobat? This is the single most important feature of Acrobat for me and you've taken it away?!!!! Please, PLEASE don't do this. I'm going to see if I can revert to earlier version now until this is fixed. I cannot begin to explain the many hours this is going to add to my workload every week.

This needs to revert back immediately. Who thought that this change was in any way a good idea?

Does your UI team exist solely to make our lives miserable??? Interface keeps getting worse and worse with every update. Do people honestly complain to you about things like "Oh...that checkbox sure is ugly I wish it was hidden behind a menu!" or "Oh those colored comment type icons sure are ugly I wish you would make them all gray and indistinguishable from one another!" Could you please stop changing things on a whim because you think the look 'cleaner' and start considering that people are trying to use this program to accomplish actual work?

Imagine my joy at running into this today (after being on vacation).
As others have said, this is slowing my reviewing process down considerably. -
Rebecca commented
This is an extremely inconvenient and inefficient process. When I am editing documents with over 200 comments from my partners, I need a quick and easy way to keep track of the items I edited. This has actually doubled my work load.

Please restore this right away; such a terrible idea to remove it. Did the development team talk to or think about anyone who actually uses this program??

Our company has been exploring alternative options. We cannot afford to keep relearning your software whenever you decide to redesign and move all of the features we have been used to. Whoever was in charge of the DC update needs to be fired or forced into retirement IMMEDIATELY. Workflow and finding features is absolutely a joke.

I agree with everyone that the checkbox should be returned. however there is actually a shortcut... shift+k will add the check mark to the comment. but then if you unclick the check mark, it disappears and doesn't leave the empty box like it used to. still, adobe should offer the option to have the check boxes show or not.

I am in favor of returning the old functionality. Much more intuitive and asset to production work flow. Also, the filter comments function doesn't work properly as it's not live updating "completed" comments.

Please put the check box back outside of the drop-down menu. It's killing my team's productivity.

This was a really bad idea! and more than doubles the amount of time it takes to perform an essential core task of the product... how is that intuitive!?!?!
Please put the check mark box back in the main comment window where acrobat users have very clearly stated they need it!!
This is like removing a turn signal from a car and putting it in the glove box to "streamline" the dashboard. sure its less cluttered, but try indicating a turn in your car now. -

I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills, skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you put the check boxes back by default, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you.

What were they thinking, it's literally the only way to sort through comments, especially when you get about 150 text changes per round of amends!
