Visualising notes

Bringing up the interface

Scene Notes is operated through a Scene Overlay. To open it, either hover on the Scene View and press the ` key (the one next to Shift, on a British keyboard), or click on the three vertical dots menu at the top-right corner of the Scene View, and select Overlays Menu:

Once the Overlays Menu opens, click on Scene Notes to visualise the overlay. Once the overlay is enabled, you should see it appear somewhere in your Scene View:

The overlay appears in its closed state. Click on it to enable it, and visualise the Scene Notes:

To hide the notes again, disable the overlay by clicking on the first button.

Loading notes for a specific Unity scene

Once a scene is associated to a note, that note will be automatically loaded in Unity when the scene is open. Opening and closing scenes will automatically show/hide the related notes.

Focusing on scene notes

If the Scene View is very busy with gizmos and icons, it might be hard to see scene notes. To get focus, click on the Focus button. All gizmos and icons for other components will be disabled, putting the spotlight on the notes.

Click on the button again, or disable the overlay, to see other gizmos again.
