Notes Browser window

When you have many notes in the scene, it can be handy to look at them as a list. For that, Scene Notes has the Notes Browser window:

The Notes Browser window

The Notes Browser visualises the notes' author, title, a brief excerpt of the contents, the creation date, a screenshot (if present), and the state (as a vertical bar, to the left).

Click on a note to bring the camera there (if the note is currently loaded), and to ping its corresponding ScriptableObject.

Opening the Notes Browser

This window can be opened via the top menu under:

• Tools > Scene Notes > Notes Browser window, or

• Window > Scene Notes > Notes Browser

Filtering notes

You can search and filter the notes visualised by using the top filters bar:

The notes being filtered by name, state, and category

Searching using the search box will look into the note's title, contents, and author.

The Notes Browser is empty?

If the window is empty when first opening it, it's because Unity might still be building the search index that the Notes Browser relies on. Look for the activity bar in the bottom right corner: is there an operation going?

If the notes still don't appear after a few seconds, you can try rebuilding the index. Go to Window > Search > Index Manager. In the window that open, select the first index (it should be called "Assets"), right-click, and choose Force Rebuild.

After a few seconds of wait, the notes should now appear in the Browser window.
