Description

I LOVE Texstudio and much prefer it over Overleaf. However, my team uses Overleaf to work on projects. I know I can pull changes made in Overleaf to my local repository to see them with Texstudio, but I would love it if I could also view the Overleaf comments that my teammates make.

Otherwise, for now, I have to have both Texstudio (to edit) and Overleaf (to view pop-up comments) to work in collaborative works.

Expected behavior

See Overleaf's comments.

Actual behavior

Can't see Overleaf team members' comments.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating TeXstudio's existing Overleaf or project-synchronization integration and determine how Overleaf comments could be accessed; done means team members' Overleaf comments are viewable in TeXstudio.
