+### `scrollToComment`
+
+Scroll the document to a comment and set it as active. Unlike `setCursorById`, this is a top-level SuperDoc method that works without accessing the editor directly.
+
+<CodeGroup>
+
+```javascript Usage
+superdoc.scrollToComment("comment-123");
+```
+
+```javascript Full Example
+import { SuperDoc } from 'superdoc';
+import 'superdoc/style.css';
+
+const superdoc = new SuperDoc({
