I downloaded and installed Review Board in order to evaluate its fit for our team's workflow. I see that you can attach files to a review. When I go to review an attached file, Review Board lets me add a comment to the entire file, but I don't see a way to comment on individual lines within the file.

How can I comment on individual lines in an attached source file?

According to the official documentation for the current version (more specifically, see Creating Review Requests and Reviewing File Attachments page), it is only possible to comment on non-diff files as a whole. I have tried to find a workaround, but I have not been successful.

This wiki page, which contains ideas for the 2.0 version, says the following:

There has been some request for reviewing files other than diffs. Screenshots have been the main one, though someone suggested Wiki changes and specialized views for certain text documents.

So maybe this will be possible in 2.0, but as of 1.7, it is not possible.
