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 macOS, 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.
To change the formatting of notes, use the Notes preferences. For more 
information, see “Preferences — Application — Notes.”
