Starting with the 2408.05 release<\/a> of PIX on Windows, developers can add bookmarks, or annotations, to lanes in the Timeline layout of Timing Captures<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bookmarks are text notes that can be added at either a specific point in time, or to a range of time, on any lane in the Timeline. These notes are used to annotate aspects of a capture that are interesting from a performance perspective. Bookmarks are saved in the capture, thereby allowing one developer to add a note for another developer to look at. The ability to save and share bookmarks helps developers collaborate on captures within a studio. The Summary layout provides a list of all bookmarks in the capture, along with hyperlinks to navigate to individual bookmarks in the Timeline layout.<\/p>\n

Creating Bookmarks<\/h3>\n

To create a bookmark, right click on an item of interest in the timeline and select\u00a0Add Bookmark<\/strong>\u00a0from the context menu.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Image<\/a><\/p>\n

Doing so displays a bookmark dialog. Enter text into the dialog, then choose\u00a0Ok<\/strong>\u00a0to save the bookmark.<\/p>\n

\"Image<\/a><\/p>\n

Bookmarks are represented as icons drawn on the timeline. Hovering over an icon displays a tooltip with a preview of the bookmark text. Clicking on a bookmark icon brings up the edit dialog.<\/p>\n

\"Image<\/a><\/p>\n

Bookmarks can also be associated with a time range. Select a time range then choose\u00a0Add bookmark<\/strong>\u00a0from the context menu to bring up the bookmark dialog. Icons that represent a bookmark for a range of time are drawn in the middle of the timespan.<\/p>\n

Bookmarks on the Summary Layout<\/h3>\n

A list of the bookmarks in a capture is displayed in the Summary layout. The list is ordered by the timestamp at which the bookmarks were created.<\/p>\n

\"Image<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Clicking on a hyperlink navigates to the timeline view at the point in time where the bookmark was defined. The bookmark dialog is opened in read only mode. Click the\u00a0Edit<\/strong> button to change the bookmark text.\u00a0 If a bookmark has been scrolled out of view, use the\u00a0Show Bookmark<\/strong> button to bring the bookmark back into view. The previous and next buttons can be used to navigate through through the set of bookmarks.<\/p>\n
