There are several ways to add a comment to a bug:
- Select the bug in the Bug Table and click the Comment button
on the Bug Toolbar. Provide your comment in a dialog. Click Upload to upload it to Bugzilla immediately or Save Draft to save it locally. - Select the bug in the Bug Table and open the Edit Bug dialog. Provide your comment in the Additional Comment field. Click Upload to upload it to Bugzilla immediately or Save Draft to save it locally.
- Right-click one of the comments in the Bug Details area and select Comment. Provide your comment in a dialog. Click Upload to upload it to Bugzilla immediately or Save Draft to save it locally.
The comments are displayed in the Bug Details area which provides additional functionality for working with comments.
The comments which are saved locally have the <new comment> tag instead of the author label and can be modified or removed. To do that, right-click the comment and select Edit Comment or Delete Comment accordingly.
Once a comment is uploaded to Bugzilla the <new comment> tag is changed to the comment author and the comment cannot be modified.
