# Where did my lines and notes go after generating Lining?

After generating Lining, **two things commonly look like missing content** — but they're not. Your other notes are simply hidden in the background, and any tramlines you don't see might be on a different Lining Layer.

|| 📝 NOTE: Lining Tools is an [Industry Pro](https://help.scriptation.com/en/article/what-is-scriptation-industry-pro-1jfjecg/) feature.

### "Where did my other notes go?"

When you generate Lining, Scriptation creates a new layer called **Lining** and makes it your active layer. Your other layers are still there — they're just hidden in the background.

1. Tap the **Layers** icon on the Top Toolbar.

2. Each **regular** layer row has two icons that show its state:

* **Pencil icon** — marks your **active layer** (the one you're currently annotating on). Right after generating Lining, this is on the **Lining** layer;
* **Eye icon** — shows or hides the layer on the page. An **open eye** means the layer is visible; a **closed eye** means it's hidden.

To bring your other notes back:

* **To make a different layer active**, tap directly on its name. The Pencil icon moves to that layer;
* **To view a regular layer in the background without making it active**, tap its **closed eye** icon to open it.

### "Where did my tramlines go?"

If you can't see tramlines you expected, they're almost certainly on a different Lining Layer.

When a page runs out of room for additional slates, Scriptation automatically creates the next layer — **Lining 2**, then **Lining 3**, and so on — and continues your work there. Your earlier tramlines aren't lost; they're in the previous Lining Layer.

|| 📝 NOTE: You can only have **one Lining Layer visible at a time**. Switching between Lining Layers means tapping a different one to activate it — there's no eye icon to toggle multiple Lining Layers on at once.

To find them:

1. Open the **Layers** menu;
2. Look for any layers named **Lining**, **Lining 2**, **Lining 3**, etc.;
3. Tap the layer name to make it the active layer. The Pencil icon moves to whichever Lining Layer is currently active, and that's the one you'll see on the page.

|| 📝 NOTE: A new Lining Layer is only created when a page runs out of room. Generating tramlines on a different scene doesn't, by itself, create a new layer.

### Still don't see your lines or notes?

If you've checked every Lining Layer and your tramlines or notes are genuinely missing, send us a message with:

1. The **device and OS version** you're using;
2. The **Scriptation version** you're on;
3. A short description of when the content went missing.
