Annotations are hard to differentiate (users have same initials)

[Sarahg]

So, to be clear, I'm referring to the "Insert Annotation" option in the review section of Flare.

I already submitted a request to fix the "colors" situation because everyone having the same color is very confusing to a visual person like me, but also the randomly generated colors contain "almost black" which is indiscernible among regular black text, and "florescent green" which is just horribly bad on the eyes, especially on a white background. I can't change the colors in regedit because it's a company PC.

All this to say, I have to rely on the initials a lot during reviews because I'm stuck using one color. Well, now we have a new coworker with the exact same initials as another user. (I know you can 'hover' to view the full name but that isn't ideal when we use a ton of annotations)

Is there a way to make the annotations display a full name? Or a first name last initial or first initial last name? The only thing I've potentially found is in Options > Review > User, I can change my own initials, but can't find anything about changing how other users' initials display. Am I missing it?

Thanks in advance.

I'm not aware of any properties to change the annotation characteristics. You can, however, use up to eight characters in the initials field.

That might ease some of the pain. Have you submitted a feature request?
