Workaround to have document notes instead of links to notes?

I recently upgraded to Scrivener 3 and I am mourning the loss of my document notes. If I’m reading the tutorial and blogs correctly, instead of being able to type notes for each document right into the notes pane as I used to be able to do, I have to create a note and then link to it. That seems clumsy and inefficient. I just want my document notes to be right there.

Is there a way to do that? Am I misunderstanding the new “improved” notes are now references instructions?

I apologize if I am putting this in the wrong place.

Hello.

Document notes still exist!

Slàinte mhòr.
