Scene-level notes: notes attached to scenes
Last updated May 19, 2026 · 3 min read
Notes are mainly attached to scenes — right-click a scene element in the editor to note it. The Notes tab's "By Scene" view lists these notes per scene.
Notes and scenes
The Notes tab's empty state prompts "Right-click a scene element or click + to start" — which tells you the main way notes are created: annotating scene elements. In the Write editor, right-click a scene element (scene heading, dialogue, description…) to attach a note to it.
The By Scene view
The Notes tab's By Type / By Scene toggle:
- By Type: a three-column board (Note / Todo / Foreshadow Tracking)
- By Scene: regroups notes by scene — see which notes hang off each scene
On a long script, "By Scene" makes it easy to spot which scenes have unresolved notes / todos.
Scope filter
"Series / Season / Episode / All" narrows the notes to one level, or shows everything.
What suits a scene-attached note
- Scene-specific todos: "dialogue here isn't finished yet"
- Actor / production instructions: "J. Doe's gaze shifts from tired to alert in this scene"
- Restructuring reminders: "maybe this scene fits better in E5?"
- Foreshadowing: what this scene plants / pays off (use the "Foreshadow Tracking" type — details)
