Comment

A compact text note with an optional colored title for documenting a patch in place.

What it does #

Comment stores explanatory text entered in the Inspector and displays it directly on the Grid canvas. An optional module name appears as a colored title above the smaller body text.

Controls and ports #

Control	Label	Official description
comment	Comment Display [text]	Display for comment entered in the Inspector Panel
title	Title Display [text]	Module name, if the user has defined it (in the Inspector Panel), shown in the module's color
entry	Comment Entry Area [text]	Entry area for comment(s) to be shown

Practical uses #

• Explain unusual routing, expected ranges, pre-cord requirements, or live-test results beside the relevant modules.
• Leave maintenance notes and usage instructions inside presets shared with other users.

Things to know #

• Comment has no signal behavior and cannot alter the patch.
• Its title is the user-defined module name; its body is the separate Comment entry.
• Concise comments remain legible at normal Grid zoom and are more useful than transcribing every cable.

Technical details #

No Nitro implementation has been confirmed for this visible module. The behavior is described conservatively from module metadata and editorial research.

Comment is a persisted UI annotation containing title, color, and body text. It does not enter the DSP graph, so no Nitro body is expected.

Open questions #

• Check maximum length, multiline wrapping, Unicode/Markdown treatment, zoom behavior, preset retention, search, and accessibility.

Version and sources #

Checked against Bitwig Studio 6.0.6. This page combines Bitwig's module metadata, the existing Grid course and guides, and Nitro analysis where the mapping is strong enough to support a technical statement.
