Add a Note window to a Desktop

You can easily create a Note window that can be saved alone as a desktop or added to a desktop along with SPC charts, DMS charts, and dashboards. This can be useful for collaborating with others or for keeping a list of action items.

Unless you store the note itself as a desktop or store it with charts and dashboards as a desktop, the note window is only temporary.

When you make any changes to a desktop, GainSeeker does not prompt you to save the desktop with those changes.

You can save the desktop as a new desktop or overwrite an existing desktop. See Storing Charts and Dashboards as a Desktop
