    <p>Hi Hugh,</p>
    <p>that depends on the provider in use, a PostGIS provider might
      behave differently from a Shapefile. See if wrapping the comment
      in /* comment */ works.</p>
    <p>Cheers, Hannes<br>

        <div>Hi all, <br>
        </div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>in the Layer Properties >> source >> Query
          Builder dialogue, if I use "--" it shows that I've commented
          out that line. when I test the query though, it throws an
          error complaining about the comment I included. <br>
        </div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>Is there a way to include a comment in the query? <br>
        </div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>i've like to include a note to myself when I filter things
          sometimes as it can be hard months or years later to figure
          out the motivation. for example: <br>
        </div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>-- remove built neighborhood bikeway according to KML file
          from client, per email 2022-02-03<br>
          "LOCAL_ID" NOT IN (4030, 3533, 4307, 6015, 5217)</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>Maybe there's a better way to include this note, but it
          seems that the closer the note is to the filter query
          definition the more likely I am to see it. <br>
        </div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>thanks<br>
