You can use the HYPERLINK command (Ctrl+K) and fill only the "Displayed text" portion of the Hyperlink dialog (no hyperlink is neccessary). This text is then displayed (as a tooltip) when you hoover your mouse over the drawing object.
To make the procedure quicker, you can use the following LISP code to add just the text (the comment):
(defun C:COMMENT ( / ss) (prompt "Select objects to comment: ") (setq ss (ssget)) (command "_-HYPERLINK" "_Ins" "_Obj" ss "" "" "") (princ) )Save this code to a comment.lsp file, load it with APPLOAD and start the Comment command. You can also create a toolbar button for it.
