Is there a spot where I can check all notes that I took?

So I’m new to this website, and have been taking a lot of notes throughout the times I have been studying, I’m currently on “Fundamentals of mesh modeling” and I’ve been wondering if there is some tab I can click where I can see all the notes I made. Is there a spot like that?

That’s a good question. When I used to take notes I just made a Word doc and saved in with my practice model. After a while though, for me that is, I found I never went back to my notes but that’s just me. I hope there will be a way of gathering that info together, that would be slick if it can. I may start using it myself to make notes of time frames of certain spots and have a list of a breakdown of points of interest so I can find the topic I am looking for far more easily. But I guess I could do that in Word as well,,,hhmmmm, you got me thinking 8^]

Above the video is where you can make notes on a lesson, 
There was a section in the dashboard that would show all your notes in one place, however that seems to have disappeared, at least for me any way.
@Imheretobehere can you confirm there is no Note section in the dashboard?

It seems the only way to see the notes, is to revisit the lesson page and click the notes button, 
Not ideal, as you need to remember what video you made the note.

I will get this reported, and hopefully it’s fixed asap.

Thanks for spotting this issue and letting us know.

Hey there, welcome to CG Cookie! I’m glad you’re here. 

Currently, there isn’t a centralized location to view notes, but it’s a great idea. The notes feature was an experiment to see how it may be used and if people found it useful. Sounds like it’s helpful?

The same thing happened to me, I may have taken notes at the beginning while I was learning, but I never got back to check them, so I wrote them and there they stayed, never to be seen by eyes again. But I’ve always had the question, did I never got back to my notes because the act of writing them down made them get etched into my brain? If I had not written them down, then they wouldn’t have stuck in my brain? So I wrote them down to check them but the act of writing them down avoided the having to check them? So if I didn’t write notes, then I would totally forget the thing but there wouldn’t be any notes to remind me of the thing? Such is life, I’m not surprised.

I don’t know if this will help, but I open a word document to make notes so I can grab a screen shot if there is something like settings, etc., that I want to keep for later.  I am working through the texturing lessons and I sometimes take screen shots of the nodes.

Came here to look for the exact thing too – a see all notes would be amazing!
Currently I have to “save” a bookmarked video I have notes on, and check them all later, until I find the one with the relevant notes… very laborious!
The screenshot idea was a great idea too. I was using a excel sheet to note down all the short cuts/tips.  I may adopt that, thank you.
