I had originally posted on this topic several years ago and never really go any answers so gave up. Someone just posted again, so reminded me how much notes could be truly useful. So here are a few questions that I cannot find answered anywhere.
This area to me is one of the biggest weaknesses in the whole system. The intent seems to be a place where you add your own notes, but then there is no way to index or text or even tag search it or even export it which seems to lose the whole point. I'm hoping someone can simply answer how these tools are meant to be used, or if they aren't meant to be used I will continue to ignore them.
