    Description

      Problem Definition

      Taking the example of inline comments inside an Expand macro.
      If you are mentioned in an inline comment that is placed over some text located inside an Expand macro, the link from the View comment email notification will indeed open the inline comment thread, but it will not expand the macro therefore not displaying the text on which the comment is placed.

      Suggested Solution

      When coming from a link that redirects to the inline comments, it would be great if the Expand macro is automatically expanded so we can also see the text where the comment is placed.

      Workaround

      Currently, the user is redirected to the macro unexpanded and the inline comment is displayed.
      Therefore, it is still required to expand the macro manually and look for the text where the inline comment is placed.

      Note: This behavior applies to headings as well, as links to pages with headings would also not expand.
