Creating notes: entry points and the three types
Last updated May 19, 2026 · 2 min read
Notes in the Notes tab are created mainly by right-clicking a scene element or clicking +. Each note is one of three types: Note, Todo, or Foreshadow Tracking.
How to create a note
When a Notes column is empty it prompts: "No notes yet. Right-click a scene element or click + to start." Two starting points:
- Right-click a scene element: in the Write editor, right-click a scene element (scene heading, dialogue, description, etc.) to make a note on it. A note created this way is attached to that scene.
- Click +: add a note directly in the Notes tab.
The three note types
Every note is one of three types, matching the three columns of the "By Type" view:
- Note: general ideas, references, remarks
- Todo: things to handle, not yet done
- Foreshadow Tracking: setups planted vs. payoffs (details)
Viewing and filtering
- By Type / By Scene switches the view
- Series / Season / Episode / All filters the scope
- Each column header shows a count of notes of that type
