You can add comments to documents.
A comment can contain various markup elements and a description.
When you add comments to part or assembly files, the comments are added to the current state of the model and remember that model state. "State of the model" includes visibility (hidden or shown components, cross sections, transparencies), orientation, zoom level, and pan position.
Comments are displayed on the Markup tab in the SolidWorks eDrawings Manager. When you reply to a comment, the reply is part of a discussion thread.
You can type text in the Description box at the bottom of the Markup tab. This text is added to the active comment and does not appear in the graphics area. Descriptions can contain only text.
