Comments in scripts?

How can I add comments in the scripts that are ignored while generating/publishing? Notes to myself, so to speak? I’m probably just missing it but can’t seem to find a way.

i.e. like in HTML, you can use a tag format like


Hi Gus,

Maurice from the Synthesia Support team here!

There isn’t currently a way to add hidden comments in the Synthesia script that are ignored during generation/publishing. Anything in the script may be treated as spoken/script content, so there’s no HTML-style comment syntax. The safest workaround is to keep those notes outside the script, or remove them before generating.

If you need any further help, feel free to reach out to us directly at support@synthesia.io.

Best,

Maurice
