Notes
The Notes feature lets you store comments in a project without affecting the actual
content of the project. You can use notes to add reminders, comments on the content,
or URLs to a project. An open note looks like adhesive or "sticky" notes you might
stick to hard copy.
When used with Quark Publishing Platform, the Notes feature uses settings defined
in Quark Publishing Platform. For more information, see A Guide to Quark Publishing
Platform.
Creating notes
To work with notes, first choose View > Show Notes to make sure notes are visible.
(If this menu item displays as Hide Notes, notes are already visible.) When this option
is unchecked, note icons are no longer visible in text and menu items for working
with notes are disabled.
To create a note, place the text insertion point where you want to enter the note and
choose Item > Note > Insert. A note window displays and in WYSIWYG view, a Note
icon also displays to the right of the text insertion point. Enter the note text in the
note window.
On Mac OS X, a link is also shown between the note icon and the note window and
the newly created note is not shown on the Article area, instead it is shown in the
pasteboard area and doesn't hide the Article text.
You can use notes to store comments in projects.
The Note icon is actually a special kind of text character. It does not affect the flow of
text, but in other ways it works like a regular text character. For example, if you select
a range of text that contains a Note icon, then start entering characters, the text
(including the Note icon) is replaced by the characters you enter, and the note is lost.
