Changelog
1.6.0 - UX improvements
(31/05/26)
Improvements to screenshots:
Screenshots are now saved into a dedicated sub-folder, keeping the project tidier.
A new Project Setting lets you choose whether screenshots are saved as sub-assets of the note, rather than as separate files.
Screenshots can now also be attached to individual comments, not just to the note itself.
Category filtering:
The Scene Note Categories overlay now acts as a filter, letting you show or hide notes by category directly from the scene view.
Note titles in scene view are now correctly occluded by objects in the scene when gizmos are set to 3D.
Note management:
Notes can now be deleted by deleting their linked GameObject (with a confirmation prompt).
Added a button to zero out a note's offset from its linked GameObject.
Fixes and improvements
Much better Undo support across user actions on notes.
Removed warnings for obsolete API in Unity 6.4.
1.5.1
(22/04/26)
It is now possible to take screenshots and include gizmos in them.
Screenshots attached to a note now show as a big thumbnail, which makes it easier to see what's pictured in them.
Added the ability to decide whether a newly-created note is automatically linked to the selected GameObject. Also added menu items to perform the creation of both linked and non-linked notes.
Scene Notes now has a presence in both Project Settings and Preferences. Settings are split between the two as it makes sense.
Fixes and improvements
Fixed an issue with notes that broke the Ctrl+Shift snapping functionality.
Improved error handling for when a note is missing its linked object.
Redesigned comment UI on notes.
Removed warnings of obsolete code.
1.5.0 - Category icons
(15/06/25)
Category icons:
Notes can now display an icon that displays the category they belong to.
This icon can be assigned on the NoteCategories ScriptableObject, and can be customised to be any image.
A new option in Project Settings, Icon Displays, allows to choose whether to display state or category via the note's icon.
A new toolbar, Scene Notes Categories, can be opened to act as a legend for category icons.
Improvements to note titles in scene:
You can now customise the colour and transparency of titles, and give them a background for improved readability.
You can trim long titles, to cater for excessively long ones creating too much noise.
Titles in scene view now fade away in the distance when too small.
The note state "Started" has been renamed to "In Progress".
1.4.0 - Link to GameObject
(02/06/25)
Notes can be now linked to a GameObject.
When linked, notes follow the GameObject when it's moved, rotated or scaled.
When linked, a note can have an offset from the GameObject's pivot so it can be positioned on a specific point with respect to the GameObject.
Multi-selection editing:
It's now possible to multi-select notes and edit most of their properties in bulk (title, contents, category, scene).
Fixed an issue when duplicating a note ScriptableObject, when the duplicated note keeps the same title. Now the new note automatically gets assigned a new 4-digit suffix.
1.3.0 - Focus mode
(13/05/2025)
New and changed toolbar items:
New Focus button in the toolbar to hide other icons and gizmos, to focus on Scene Notes.
New Filter by State button in the toolbar, to filter notes by state (Done, Started, Not Started).
New icons for category button.
Text in the note editor now wraps on long lines.
Log messages now display package's name.
Overlay menu now shows Scene Notes icon instead of letters SN.
Improved query string in NotesBrowser.
Fixes:
Preventing Notes Browser error when deleting a note.
Fixed new notes not receiving an icon, on creation.
Fixed issues where scene names with spaces would break the search query in the Notes Browser.
Fixed error when trying to open the toolbar in an unsaved scene.
Fixed note snapping back into position when Completed or Started.
Removed warning due to obsolete class in Unity 6 and up.
1.2.2
(01/04/25)
Fixed a bug that prevented the icons of the Overlay from loading, when first installing the package.
Improved reactivity of the Browser window when changing a note's state.
1.2.1
(31/03/25)
When editing note categories and the Notes Browser is open, they will update in the Notes Browser window too.
Fixed a layout issue in the Notes Browser happening with long category names.
Fixed various small bugs.
1.2.0 - Browser window and Screenshots
(29/12/24)
New Notes Browser window! It's not possible to browse notes in list mode, and search for them by state, name, author, and category. It's also possible to filter by open scenes.
Now it's possible to attach a screenshot to notes. The screenshot can be taken directly in the scene view and automatically attached, by clicking a button in the note's Inspector.

(18/07/24)
Fixed an annoying bug with GUID clashes, happening when using other package assets.
