I’m using Gramps 6.0 on a Windows 11 Home system.
My issue is that I have a custom type, and I can display them in a filtered report, but I don’t see how I can add the notes in the report of that type.
So you have notes of a custom type in your database. You can see these notes in a report with the custom type. You wish to add more notes to your database with that custom type.
When adding the new note select the Type box to display the Type list. Your Custom Type should be down the bottom of that list.
So I have on the left side Events and I can filter them to the custom created Type. In my case it is a value of a reference book - person in that book. Clicking on the record I see and edit the value under notes. They are located in the Event note with the specific value (reference to the book). When I export the filtered events into an Excel sheet the specific values of the event are not included. I don’t see how I can export the custom event including the event notes
The Book referenced would be a Source and the information from the book would be part of a Citation. The Citation could be attached to the Person, Family or to an event of what took place.
If you need the strategy you outlined, instead of a note added to the event, use the Description field for the information from the book.
