Finally upgrading from max 2009 to 2011, and I am loving this new slate editor. Besides feeling a bit late to the game, I'm wondering if anyone knows a way to add notes to the nodal diagram like you can in nuke? Anyone have some script or plugin or something...?

Here at work we are trying to refine our material library. It is not uncommon for any given material to be used by one person, but created 6 months ago by another. So it seems like it would be nice if there was a way we could add annotation nodes to describe what certain controllers and sub-materials do in complex materials...
Right now we often add a description of the operation within the map or material name, but it just seems that now that there's a nodal view this should be intergrated into max.
Do others agree...? anyone else face this problem...?David M. Foster -
+1 This would be very helpful. I actually tend to do this using Evernote and some screen caps when things get complex, but it would be nice to have something integrated.

I know this really should be a request for Max, not Vray; but these days, I have a lot more faith in Chaos group listening to their users than Autodesk, so I wonder if there was a way Vlado could make a 'note node' that could interact with Vray materials and maps..? I'm not sure how possible that would be, but it sure would be handy.
For now I'll look into Evernote. Thanks Brett, I hadn't heard of it before.David M. FosterComment

Cool. Just posted it as a suggestion. I'll look forward to seeing it in a future release.
