Comments on the Transcription/CC File
Katie Ried
It would be awesome to be able to highlight text in the the transcription and leave comments or suggested edits with strikethrough similar to Google Docs. Those comments and suggested edits could also appear in the timeline.

Re-opening this post so folks can upvote the feature request for commenting directly on the transcript.
As of recently though, we do support editing/correcting the transcript! Hopefully that meets some of your needs

May sound trivial as we can currently click to copy the transcript text at the timecode BUT I think it could be great if you had a 3rd icon that you could click where any text you highlight is either
a. transferred to the Comment section in speech marks, allowing you to further comment.
OR, as OP suggested,
b. strikethrough the text and added to Comments/Timeline as a suggestion to REMOVE.

Akila Amaratunga - Dropbox Engineer for further clarity, the main thing here is simplifying a very common review request; "remove this pls" AND making the communication super clear and accurate while minimising errors. �

Why has this been closed? This is a great suggestion. So many times I have to copy/paste or manually transcribe the exact text to remove from the clip. Doing it this way is far more efficient than creating range with shift+drag.
