  Hide marker comments

  Posted by Olly Starkey on June 12, 2019 at 9:00 am

  Hey all.

  Is it possible to hide marker comments?

  I find it can get messy with overlapping marker comments, so it would be good to temporarily hide them.

  This has been discussed before but I can’t seem to find an answer to the problem.

  Thanks

  If you make a line break in the comment, only the first line will show in the timeline. So, if you had a comment like

  “1
  this is a very long explanation of what this marker really means in this composition”

  you only see the “1” in the timeline.

  Thus, I expect, someone with scripting experience should easily be able to make a script that adds and removes a line break to “hide” and “show” marker comments.

  If you do it that way, even without the script, you can hover over the marker to see the full text.
