Site Management and Collaboration > About Design Notes |
You can keep track of extra file information associated with your documents, such as image source-file names and comments on file status, by using the Design Notes command.
For example, if you copy a document from one site to another, you can add Design Notes for that document, with the comment that the original document is in the other site folder. Then if you update that document (or someone else does), you'll know that you need to update the original page as well.
You can also use Design Notes to keep track of sensitive information that you can't put inside a document for security reasons. For example, you can include information about how the document was created, or notes on how a particular price or configuration was chosen, or what marketing factors influenced a design decision. You can see which files have Design Notes attached in the Site window: a Design Notes icon appears in the Notes column of the Site Files view.
