So if I'm understanding you correctly, in whatever list I'm showing, you want me to render the annotation that was drawn and scale it down to fit in a 50x50 or smaller image, and that's the identifier you would use to know which one to jump to? If the annotation was large, say 400x400, that would probably be pretty hard to see and make sense of, so this feature would then be designed around small annotations. In that case, we'll have to talk about the workflow. For this to work well (and quickly), I'd probably need to introduce a new dedicated "note" tool that would function much like a freeform annotation, but would have some additional settings so that you could optionally add a note. If your preference is to utilize the existing pen tool for this, but then have a way to designate something as a note after selecting and editing it, let me know, but that seems like it would be slower.

I got a little lost in your last paragraph in terms of how the timestamp would be processed by the DAW or video editor for jumping to the spot. I'm not sure what kind of list would be created that would indicate a particular position on the PDF that could be used by a DAW or video editor. That seems to me like it would require new functionality in the DAW or video editor to work with that kind of list. I think most features like this are built around things like musicXML that include the note information and such, versus PDFs which are just containers for images.

Thanks,
Mike
