I use the Notes section to create production Notes and Questions for clients - they get a Word copy and CTRL-F to find their name and the question/comment.
When I use Question Banks, it seems like the QB slide is set up to have Notes, but when you try and use it - it just changes to a "hand" icon, and you cannot actually write anything in it.
Is this a bug, by design, or just a cunning and playful piece of software misdirection?
I believe this is because you're viewing the "launching pad" for the question bank. That placeholder allows you to select the slide view of the questions, or you can open the question bank list. Once you have a question selected, however, you should be able to enter notes.
It could be a little more clear, I agree, but I believe the reason you're not able to enter notes here is because you're not actually viewing slide content at that point.
Let me know if you have any questions and have a great day! :)
Yes - I get that, but that is the place I would specifically like the Notes to go, at the "uber" level, rather than at each "slide" level. As it shows in the Story View, I assumed it would behave just like a slide - but no :(

HI Christine, and thanks.

Hey ho!
Thanks again.
Hey Bruce,
No worries - and I totally understand. That would be quite useful, especially when sharing the project with multiple reviewers.
You know that thing we say about sharing here on the forums - might be a good one :)
Thanks, Bruce!
