Find every sticky note in a file with All Notes

Goal

Get an overview of all notes in a Figma or FigJam file and go straight to the one you need, even on another page.

Before you start

• At least one Notely Widget note in the file.

Steps

1. Open All Notes Select a note and click All Notes in the toolbar above it, or click All Notes in the editor. The list shows every note, newest edit first, with its color, title, author, page and tag.
2. Search or filter Type in Search notes… to match note titles. Click a chip such as All, Note or Alert to show only notes with that tag; each chip shows how many there are.
3. Jump to a note Click a row to go to the note and select it. If it is on another page, Figma switches page and says "Moved to page" with the page name.
4. Open a note for editing Double-click a row, or use its Open note button, to jump to the note and open it in the editor.
5. Edit several notes at once Click Batch edit, tick the notes you want, then use Change color or Change type in the bar at the bottom. Selecting two or more notes on the canvas while the list is open ticks them for you.

Tips

• Changing the color in Batch edit also switches each note's tag to the color's tag, unless you chose that note's tag yourself.
• Orange is set from the color menu above a note; the list and the editor show orange notes with a yellow dot.

Result

You find any note in the file in a few clicks and can restyle groups of notes together.

If something goes wrong

• Search does not find a word I know is in a note. Search looks at note titles only. Give important notes a title, or filter by tag instead.
• "This note has been deleted." The note was removed from the canvas after the list was opened. Its row disappears; undo the deletion in Figma if you need it back.
• A note on another page is missing from the list. A note joins the list once it has been shown on the canvas. Visit that page once, then open All Notes again.
