Creating a Collaborate Note
Do the following to create a new note in the Collaborate app.
To create a new note:
1. Right-click inside the Media container of a topic or assignment and select Create Note from the context menu.
The note opens for editing.
2. (optional) You might want to take this opportunity to assign a title to the note by clicking on the title bar and entering a name or short description. If you do not do this now, you can always change the title at a later date.
The note’s title field and the name of the note as displayed in the Media container are the same value.
3. Click the Close button to exit the note.
If you change the note’s title and you exit without clicking the Close button, the updated title is saved in the note. However, the correct name will not be displayed in the Media container. This might occur if you close the note by quiting your browser, or if you use the breadcrumbs in the Collaborate Header to navigate away from your current location.
You can resolve this issue by reopening the note and clicking the Close button. Alternatively, the Collaborate app will update the name in the Media container automatically after a 15 minute period.
