Hi Kai
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">as always, thanks for the feedback. I had a quick go at it and it seems this</div>
<div class="">functionality is not available at the moment.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">However, it seems to me it should be possible to use the new Read-Write group</div>
<div class="">system introduced in 5.1.2 where members of the same group can edit an annotation</div>
<div class="">to introduce the full collaborative mode you are describing.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Will is currently on leave but I opened a GitHub issue [1] to track your suggestion.</div>
<div class="">We can discuss it when he comes back and get back to you.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Best regards,</div>
<div class="">Sebastien</div>

<br class="">
I noticed that its possible in Omero web figure to open and save a copy of another persons figure from the same group, which is a great feature to share figures!<br class="">

<font face="Calibri" class=""><font face="Calibri" class="">Now I was wondering whether there is a way for several people to work on the same figure, rather than on separate copies.<br class="">
