The Notes is a drawing specific feature that can be used to insert notes into a drawings. The Notes cannot be used when the drawing is opened in the View only mode.
Adding a note using the CustomTools Basic Edition or the CustomTools Lite Edition, adds the (CustomTools Basic/Lite Edition) text to the end of the note specified by the user. In other CustomTools editions, the additional text does not appear into the note.
Since the custom notes are stored into the database by the database users the notes are available for any other users in the database regardless the used profile.
