4.9.2 Adding a Note

Adding a Note to an existing discussion may involve two aspects:

  1. defining the 'Reply' links to existing notes, if any (see 4.9.3);
  2. creating the note's content.

To add a note that does not reply to any existing note,

  • click  File    New    Add Note   when reading the notes of a discussion, or
  • click action menu Add Note   for the discussion's entry in the folder page that contains the discussion to bring up the 'Add Note' form. In this form
  • choose the type of contribution (see 4.9) most appropriate for the message of the note you create. The corresponding icon will later be displayed right of the name of the note;
  • write the text of the article into the 'Message' field. HTML tags following a <P> tag in the text will be interpreted by browsers displaying the article;
  • enter the gist of your contribution in the 'Subject' field.

As its author you may modify a note, even after replies have been submitted:

  • Click action menu Edit Note   to bring up the 'Edit note' form that lets you choose another type and edit the note's name (subject) and message.
