Adding Freeform Notes to Projects
Whether you want to add a thought, jot down a great topic sentence, or incorporate a non-digital source, you can now do so with our Freeform Notes feature.
If you’re working in the PowerNotes Extension, you can add a Freeform Note by:
- Click on the “ + ” icon to the right of any Topic name in the extension sidebar
- A blank note card will appear below the Topic name
- Type your note
