<img src="/uploads/upload/image/5200/direct/1595437122959-1595437122959.png" alt="Illustration of notes/annotation feature showing stylized note or document icon with lines representing text and a small dot or marker, suggesting commenting or annotation functionality." class="fr-fic fr-dib"> Protobi has a new Notes feature that may help you coordinate revisions with your team and clients. For any element, hover over the header to see the notes icon in the upper right: <img src="/uploads/upload/image/5200/direct/1590384154313-1590384154313.png" alt="Protobi element Q3 showing header with notes icon in upper right corner. Element displays question 'How do you prefer to watch new movies?' with horizontal bar chart showing four viewing preferences with percentages around 24-27% each." style="width: 456px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib"> Press the icon to create a note to the element: <img src="/uploads/upload/image/5200/direct/1590384104028-1590384104028.png" alt="Protobi notes dialog showing empty note creation interface. Dialog titled 'Notes for Q3' with empty notes list section and blue 'Add note...' button at bottom left. Close (X) button in upper right corner." style="width: 467px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib"> If an element has at least one note, the icon will appear with a count. <img src="/uploads/upload/image/5200/direct/1590383957154-1590383957154.png" alt="Protobi element Q3 header showing notes icon with count badge '1' in upper right corner. Element displays question about movie watching preferences with horizontal bar chart showing four viewing options with percentages." style="width: 456px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib"> Press the icon to see all notes attached to the element and optionally add more or delete notes that are resolved. <img src="/uploads/upload/image/5200/direct/1590386641339-1590386641338.png" alt="Protobi notes dialog showing existing note. Dialog titled 'Notes for Q3' displays one note from 'peter@protobi.com' created 4 minutes ago saying 'Does this chart look better with a different chart type?'. Blue 'Add note...' button at bottom, close button in upper right." style="width: 461px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib"> in the upper right corner an icon shows the count of all elements with at least one note. Press that to bring up a list of all notes in the project. Double click on any note to navigate to the associated element. <img src="/uploads/upload/image/5200/direct/1590384546401-1590384546401.png" class="fr-fic fr-dib"> How you use notes is up to you. We use them ourselves to suggest revisions, and as a convention expect that they will all be cleared by the time the view is ready for the client to review. You can add more notes to form a discussion, attach background info, or other things you can imagine. Right now notes are part of the project so you have to save the project for them to be visible to colleagues and clients. And as a result notes can be seen or created by users with any level of [permission](/admin-access/project-permissions) on the project. We're working to separate that so that multiple team members can save and see notes simultaneously without saving the project itself, and so that end clients can attach their own notes even if they can't edit the project directly.
