    Am slightly humbled for not knowing this, but can anyone tell me how to add visible comments to a layer without adding a timeline marker?

    Thanks people.

    Right-click on the top of a column in the timeline, and add the “comments” column … ?

    I would like to know how to access these comments programmatically. I can only seem to find information about accessing markers. *confused*

    Thanks for anyone who can help me sort through the API to do this.
