Creating Project Notes

Project Notes allow VEGAS Pro editors to leave themselves notes in a project or to collaborate on a project and leave notes for each other along the way.

Each note has a specific timeline timecode, so you can use them to leave comments in exact points in your project. You, can categorize them by colors and custom labels, and the system can keep track of which notes have been addressed and which still need attention.

To use Project Notes, click the Project Notes tab if necessary to make the window visible.
