Add a comment

Press ⌥C, type the comment and press Return. The Inspector switches to the Project tab, where it appears at the bottom of Comments. Or press ⌘2 and type into Add comment… at the end of the list.

​
Tick a comment off

Click the checkbox in front of it. The comment is struck through, and the count in the section header, such as 2/5, goes up.

​
Edit, reorder or delete a comment

Click a comment’s text to edit it; Return keeps the change, Escape drops it. Drag a comment to move it. Click the × at its end, or right-click → Delete, to delete it.

​
Read comments left on the iPhone

Comments written in the iPhone app while listening appear in the same list, each with a time chip: the time, the bar and beat, and the version it was heard in. Play that version under Versions and go to the spot.

​
Good to know

  • Comments are not undo steps. ⌘Z never takes one back, so deleting one from the Command Palette asks first.
  • A comment is a change to the project. It marks the project unsaved and is saved with it.
  • A comment without a time is a note on the whole project. Either kind can be ticked off or deleted on the Mac or the phone.
  • The Projects window shows every project’s comments in its inspector, where you can add, tick and delete them without opening the project.
  • Blank text is ignored: Return on an empty field adds nothing.
  • Command Palette → Tick Comment Done, Edit Comment (type the new wording, then pick the comment), Move Comment (type its new place, 1 is the top, then pick it) and Delete Comment work on the open project. Until there is a comment they say No Comments.
  • A deleted comment is gone from the project, on this Mac and on the iPhone.
  • Edits made on the phone are merged per comment, the newest change winning, and sent back, so both devices end up with the same list in the same order.
  • Comments sync with the project when Sync projects is on (iCloud).
