The update no longer shows you comments on fields. Now you have to click on the field as if to edit just to see if there are nay comments. I like to add comments anytime I am viewing that might help someone down the line. Also remove comments that are unnecessary or incorrect. This is now added steps which is wasting valuable researcher time. It is frustrating me to the point I might stop using this feature. Please revert this back to the way it was.

    If you are referring to the comments box below the different "Vitals" inputs on the Family Tree Person pages, could it be (as I often do!) you have inadvertently disabled the "Detail View" option? If this (which appears immediately under "Vitals" and "Other Information" sections appears in grey, you need to move the "slider" to turn it green, then all those comments will be visible.

    Sorry if I have misunderstood your issue, but the one I mention can be very easily experienced, giving rise to exactly the same thought you have expressed.
