It looks very cluttered and unprofessional. Also, they may come in the way of using other programs or might prove a problem when you don&#8217;t want someone else to see a particular note of yours. Hiding notes from your desktop is thus an important feature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hiding sticky notes in Notezilla<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is a short video perfectly depicting this feature:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Windows: Hiding desktop sticky notes in Notezilla for Windows\" width=\"660\" height=\"371\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/eTT4XuPk4pA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hiding a particular note<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To hide a sticky note, click on the &#8216;Hide Note&#8217; icon in the Note Toolbar.

Then click on the \u2018Stick to Desktop\u2019 toolbar button and choose \u2018Show the desktop note.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"268\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conceptworld.com\/blog\/uploads\/2019\/01\/StickToDesktop-Menu-2.png\" alt=\"StickToDesktop Menu\" class=\"wp-image-4556\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.conceptworld.com\/blog\/uploads\/2019\/01\/StickToDesktop-Menu-2.png 500w, https:\/\/www.conceptworld.com\/blog\/uploads\/2019\/01\/StickToDesktop-Menu-2-300x161.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> Hiding sticky notes only make them invisible from your desktop even though they are still there.
