Sticky Note [Nte]

Sticky Notes are a useful way of providing notes, comments and history for a specific area of a comp. By changing their size and color, they can provide unobtrusive comments or crucial notices, as required. Sticky Notes make a good complement to the [[../../../Comments_Tab|Comments Tab]].

Contents




Usage


As with conventional tools, a Sticky Note can be added to a comp by selecting it from the Tools menu, in the Flow category, or from the flow view's Add Tool context menu. The new Sticky Note will be created with its title bar centered on the last click position.

Like [[../../../Flow_Editor/Groups|Groups]], Sticky Notes are created in a smaller, collapsed form. They can be expanded by double-clicking anywhere on them, or by clicking the icon in the top right corner. Once expanded, they can be resized by dragging on any side or corner. To collapse them again, click the icon in the top right corner once more.

Sticky Notes can be renamed, deleted, copied & pasted and have their tile color and text color changed, using the Flow View's context menu like any other tool. It is also possible to lock them to prevent editing.

To edit the text in a Sticky Note, first expand it by double-clicking anywhere on the note, then click below its title bar. If the note is not locked, the text will become editable.




Note: To cut, copy and paste the text, use the standard keyboard shortcuts; Ctrl+X, Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V. Right-clicking on a Sticky Note being edited will display Fusion's tool context menu, allowing the entire note to be cut, copied and pasted.



Tips for Note (edit)

The text of a note can be published, allowing it to receive modifiers or allow you to use strings from other tools.

	Tools = ordered() {
		Note1 = Note {
