    I checked under View > Extensions and it wasn’t there. I also checked under Scripting. I’ll have to re-install it and see. Is 1.2.0 the latest?

    I’ll uninstall, then reinstall.

    Is the link I used in my original post the best place to download the Notepad installation file?

    Ron,
    I used the download file (v. 1.2.0) in that link with success today.
    If this does not work for you, you may need to wait for JohnR to chime in.

    When I do this, I just use Markers(M) and Regions(R) inside the trimmer. You can add notes to the regions/markers, then add more in comments, and view all in “edit details” window. You can also cut and paste the edit details into excel for more notes.

    I’m at work now, but later I’ll try to reinstall.

    OK. Where are Comments located?

    Comments are a column under the project media window, that you can move the column and resize it.

    Markers and Regions are shown under the edit details window, by selecting the Markers or Regions display filter.

    Tags might be useful as well, especially if you use Sub-clips. Sub-clips are a great organizational tool when cameras were kept rolling for long takes. You can tag up your clips by camera, content, star rating, whatever you want. Then you can search or filter by tags. When you create a tag, a Tag bin is automatically created to contain that tag.

    When you use the search function in the media window, your search is create as a short cut under Smart Bins.

    Multiple monitors, even that old 10 year door stop monitor, can be a real help cause you can dedicate a monitor for media info and spread out.

    I’ve uninstalled and re-installed. Notepad still doesn’t appear within Vegas 13.

    Where should the installer be installing it?

    Yes notepad shows up in my version of Vegas Pro 13. I find it under view, extensions.
