Noted gives you a rich text editor inside your After Effects panel. Type / to open the slash command menu, drop images directly into the editor, and keep everything saved with your project file.
Who This Is For
Anyone who keeps project notes, shot breakdowns, revision lists, or reference text alongside their After Effects work. Noted keeps that information inside the panel instead of in a separate app or sticky note.
How It Works
- Create a note from the toolbar or the empty state prompt.
- Write using standard Markdown formatting or type
/to open the slash command menu. - Drop or paste images directly into the editor. Multiple images become a grid automatically.
- Notes save to the current project. Use the note viewer to browse, rename, duplicate, or move notes to the library.
Two Scopes
Notes live in one of two places:
- Project notes save inside your After Effects project file. They travel with the
.aepand exist only in that project. - Library notes save to disk independently of any project. They persist across all projects and AE sessions, so you can reuse templates, checklists, and reference notes everywhere.
Both scopes appear side by side in the note viewer. You can copy notes between them at any time.
Key Features
- Slash commands for headings, lists, quotes, code blocks, dividers, images, and image grids.
- Drag-and-drop images with automatic grid layout for multiple files.
- Code blocks with one-click copy.
- Markdown paste converts pasted Markdown text into formatted content.
- Markdown copy serializes editor content back to Markdown on the clipboard.
- Configurable font size, placeholder text, note naming prefix, default grid columns, and spellcheck.
