Outline: Viewing and Searching your Annotations

The Outline gives you a fully searchable list of every annotation in your script — so you can see all your notes in one place, search them by keyword, and reorder or delete them.


Start by tapping the Outline icon (the open book) on the Top Toolbar. In the dropdown, the left tab shows the Bookmarks Outline and the right tab shows the Annotations Outline.


From the Annotations Outline, you can scroll through all of your annotations, plus:


  • Search — swipe down within the outline and type in the Search Bar;
  • Delete — swipe right on any annotation and tap Delete;
  • Clear AllDELETES ALL of your annotations (use with care);
  • Edit — show tools to reorder annotations.




If you tap Edit, you can also:


  • Reorder — press and hold the three-line icon to drag an annotation into a specific order (helpful when annotations overlap);
  • Delete — tap the red circle, then tap Delete.


When you're finished, tap Done.




📝 NOTE: The Outline shows annotations on the active layer only, and defaults to the chronological order in which they were created.
