Comments and annotations

Golden does not have a free-form comment thread on analyses or dashboards today. The way to leave context on a chart is to use chart annotations.

Chart annotations

Annotations are small text callouts you anchor to a specific bar, point, or coordinate on a chart. They travel with the visualization so anyone opening the analysis sees the same notes in the same place.

• Anchor to a data point (a specific bar or category) so the annotation follows that point if the chart updates.
• Anchor to coordinates on the chart for free-form positioning.
• Style the background color, text color, font size, and leader line.

Field annotations in Catalog

In the Catalog, you can attach a note, warning, or definition to a column on a dataset. These show up next to the field so future readers know how it should be used.
