Feat #479: Add Recording Notes Integration #8906
Conversation
Some Audacity users have expressed the need to take notes while recording audio. This feature implements a simple notepad integrated into the Audacity ProjectPage, allowing users to create, save, and open note files. Co-authored-by: João Nunes <joao.guedelha.nunes@tecnico.ulisboa.pt>

Hi! I tried running the commands suggested in the workflow output. I executed both the exact workflow commands and the ones provided in the error message. However, it seems like the files mentioned there (e.g. tools/codestyle/uncrustify_run_file.sh) don't match what I have locally - or at least the paths/files don't seem to exist or get modified. Could you please confirm if there’s something missing or if I might be doing something wrong? Thanks! |

I believe uncrustify is present in the muse_framework repository, rather than the Audacity one. As for the feature: You may want to see how project data is stored in the project file, and save the project notes inside the AUP3 itself. That avoids you needing to do any of the new file/save file/open file operations on actual files in the OS, and ensures that the user never loses their recording notes from a project. |

Thanks for your input! I’ll work on it and reach out with any questions if needed. |
Implements: #479
As described in the issue, this implementation introduces a basic notepad feature, allowing users to take recording notes directly within Audacity — avoiding the need to switch between multiple windows.
We believe this is a solid starting point, with potential for future enhancements, such as a “teleprompter” mode, bullet-point checklists for tracking progress, and more.
Here’s a short video demonstrating the new feature:
