Changing Note Properties

Note properties are the various visual properties that apply to a note. For example, the font, size, and color are some of the properties you can set. A note's properties apply to all of the characters in that note.

Double‑click on the edge of a note to bring up the Note Properties dialog box. You can also right-click while in the note, and select Note Format.

  • If you format a note with multiple notes selected, the changes you make are applied to all of the selected notes. Any properties that are the same among all of the selected notes will be filled into the appropriate dialog box field as defaults. Those properties that are different will show a blank field. If you leave such dialog fields alone, those properties will be left unchanged in the selected notes. If you change any of the blank fields, those properties will be applied to all of the selected notes.
  • If you format a note when there are no notes selected, you are setting the default properties for notes that are not yet created. (Notice the dialog box is now titled Default Note Properties.) These default settings are saved on the computer.

For information on specific settings, see Note Properties.
