Near Intersection of I-35 & I-90 Southern Mn. | I used to have two Insights that I used quite a bit but have now traded them for InCommands. I believe that I am seeing on your screenshot are "marks". I think the idea of notes applies to the Insights for application situations I am assuming you are referring to the red circles and the flags shown on the screenshot.
As I recall a mark becomes associated with a field and stays with it into the future until removed. In other words the next time this field is chosen for any operation, the marks will reappear. The marks can be deleted but not selectively. I do remember that I wished that the marks could be defined as permanent or temporary. My desire for that was that "normal sized" rocks could be defined as temporary (since I planned on picking them up with a loader) but gigantic rocks or permanent tile inlets could be defined as permanent. The way the system was set up, marks could be removed but it was an all or nothing arrangement.
But anyway, if the red circles and flags are what you want to see on SMS, I thought they would come along with the regular data and appear on your maps. Now that I have the InCommands I haven't been using the marks feature since the need hasn't really occurred.
I did do the following for a drainage situation which is not quite what you are asking but was successful. I created an unusual planting configuration. I believe I defined the planter with a row/width combination that made the planter about 10' wide. By using a planting configuration rather than a tillage configuration I was able to create varieties as is done with a real planting configuration.
I set it up for a crop not grown in our area. I think I chose Peanuts. Within this configuration I could create "peanut varieties". I chose variety names such as "old main", "new 12 in", "new 8 in" etc. I then temporarily installed one of the Insights with a GPS receiver in my Polaris Ranger. I then drove over a tile line, chose the proper variety (tile size), pushed the screen icon to record and drove the tile line. I pushed the screen icon to stop recording when I reached the end. and drove to another line, chose a different variety if necessary and started recording again. This gave on screen colored lines showing the paths of the various lines and in different colors.
I also retraced the new 30 inch main where the drainage folks had physically marked the points where it had crossed existing lines. I pushed the mark function on the Insight when I reached those points. At the end of the process I had an onscreen map that showed the lines in different colors and the flag marks where old lines were crossed. I was able to get this printed out via SMS.
Unfortunately about all I've told you is that I think this should work for you but obviously hasn't. Maybe someone else will chime in.
This doesn't help you but with an InCommand in the planting tractor we are using it for several things. We are using it with an iPad running the mobile Agfiniti app. The Incommand is setup as an Access point and transfers its data to the iPad app when a field is finished or by forcing a transfer. Maps shown on the InCommand can be recreated with the Agfiniti app. This year I used it to print the variety maps directly from the iPad mobile app to my printer rather than loading the InCommand data on a memory stick, reading it and processing it with SMS and eventually printing the maps that route. This worked fine although there was some confusion when two different crops were planted in the same field. Fortunately I had printed the corn variety maps before the beans were planted in the same field beside the corn as the soybeans seem to override the corn maps. I was surprised to notice that on the back of one of the map pages there was a marks note showing where my great nephew had marked a rock. It appears that he marked the same rock this year while planting corn in that field and last fall while doing manure or tillage in the same field.
