I'm using TwinCat 3 and trying to comment a PLC written in ladder. There doesn't seem to be a way to do this. TwinCat 2 had the feature, you just right-click on the rung and insert-comment. But 3 doesn't have that option. I'm guessing there is a configuration option, but I can't find it.

I'm new at TC3 also but I believe you have to enable rung comment display in the Settings, then each rung will show at least one line for a comment (even if it's blank). You just left click on it to type. I don't have Twincat in front of me now so I'm not certain.

Kolyur is correct. Tools/Options to enable rung comments.
