Comment Character Count
Comments on procedures In Review are limited to 2000 characters (including spaces and punctuation).
To help you see where you're at, a counter will show how many characters you've used.
As you get closer to 2000, the color will change to orange to warn you. This happens at 1601.
Once you reach 2000, your screen and the counter will go red, there will be a negative number to indicate how many characters over you are, and you're unable to confirm the comment.
