Morning Oh Design Gods !!

 

In the past, I've tried to use Multi-Format Note (MFN), and well trying again.

 

First issue, is I draw on a Black screen and I have to change screen color to see the MFN.

 

If there is a setting to control or adjust, then I am just lost and not finding it.

(Which would allow the MFN settings to seen on a black screen.)

 

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

 

Thanx

Mike

I don't see a setting but you could set a layer for the MFN with a fixed color.

Does MFN work only if you copy and paste text into it?

Good Thinking.. But doesn't seem to work if i create a layer for it.

 

MFN works as a "new note" or just like "Detail or Over" I.E. just start typing as well as cut and paste from Word or whatever.

Agreed, but there's not a lot of point calling it a MULTI-FORMAT NOTE if (as is the case) you CAN'T do any formatting in it (you can't even set a character style for it, justify it or change it's colour). At least in DETAIL or OVERVIEW you can format ALL the text. The multi-format note may as well be called the CUT AND PASTE note.

 

In my opinion. it's just a useless waste of space.
