# MakeComment

## Description

Enter a regular comment. If you stand at the function start and your cursor is on a function name, IDA will ask you to enter a function comment. If you stand at the segment start and your cursor is on a segment name, IDA will ask you to enter a segment comment. If this command is issued in the Local types window, it allows you to change the comment of a structure/enum, or structure/enum member. If the cursor is on the structure/enum name, the structure/enum comment will be changed, otherwise the member comment will be changed. Otherwise, this command allows you to enter a normal indented comment for the current item. You can show/hide all comments in Options → General → Disassembly → Display disassembly line parts: Comments.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.hex-rays.com/ida-9.3/ida-actions/makecomment.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
