1. Navigate to Incident > Open and open an existing Incident.

2. If the Activity filter does not appear on the form, add it.

   1. Right-click in the form header and choose Configure > Form Design.
   2. In the left column under Formatters, click "Activities (filtered)" and drag it to your desired position.
   3. Click Save.

3. In the incident form, hover the mouse cursor over an Additional comments or Work notes field.

   Note that the related tool tip hint does not display. You also cannot right-click on the label of the journal fields.
