Match annotations with comments

[julian-vd-coas]

Hi there,

I'm currently having some issues with a custom comment component based on annotations. I want to annotate the PDF and based on those annotations add comments. Since I can't figure out how to use the comment sidebar functionality I am creating my own.

It works fine but the main thing is how to match the correct annotation with the correct comment. Simply using the PDFJS_INTERNAL_ID wouldn't suffice since my annotations can exists on the AnnotationLayer and the AnnotationEditorLayer. Since the ids aren't the same on these layers i'm having trouble matching the annotations with the comments.

Another solution would be to match based on the RECT of these annotations, but this feels hacky. Is there a resource within PFDjs that would help me with this?

Is there anyone that knows how this works perhaps?
